Those managers attended an Evoking Word Test, an interview and also answered to a previously prepared questionnaire with questions based on decision-making and intuition studies as research instruments. The result revealed that there is a relationship between the concept of intuition assumed by those managers and the concept of intuition studies. It has also been revealed that those managers have a clear perception that using intuition is important when it comes to decision-making and they actually appreciate that kind of knowledge. The result of the use of their intuition on decision-making are experience, feeling, hit, risk. It was confirmed that managers of financial institutions take into account their intuition when it comes to decisionmaking and that practice promote the growth of their effectiveness in the workplace.
