Data and Intuition are complementary when known how to utilize them . I would coach and ask if they've also taken time to analyze if there's an human changes or environmental changes. The intuition elevates the human experience and interpersonal skills in closing deals. Data is the your factual fair advantage for decision making .

When I coach, I start by using data to set the context, but I never rely on numbers alone. It's essential to trust my gut, especially when evaluating soft skills like rapport-building and adaptability. I also make sure to balance data-driven feedback with intuitive insights, so the rep gets a well-rounded view of their performance. By blending both, I can spot blind spots that one approach might miss. I always set personalized goals, monitoring trends over time rather than just snapshots. Encouraging self-reflection ensures that reps align their instincts with the data for continuous learning.

One way I blend intuition with data is by using data to identify trends, but relying on intuition to understand the "why" behind them. For instance, if data shows a rep's closing rate is declining, I dive deeper through conversation to uncover hidden factors like mindset or external pressures that data alone can’t reveal. This mix of hard numbers and human insight ensures well-rounded, impactful coaching.

I have discovered that every sales coaching situation is different depending on the individual person and their strengths. Every session is personalized with a mix of data and intuition. The ratio of each and order of presentation depends on their engagement and motivation.

For me I believe it's important to understand the person. Intuition helps in understanding underlying factors that data might not reveal, like emotional states, motivations, and personal challenges. These insights come from building rapport, listening actively, and reading body language or tone. Ultimately, while data provides a grounding point, coaching is a human-centered practice. Intuition plays a key role in knowing when to push, when to support, and when to help clients reframe their mindset. Combining the two ensures that coaching is both practical and empathetic. Fostering this environment, has allowed me, better connections and being able to use the data to drive change.
