Dr. Marcia Emery

For Marcia Emery, Ph.D., psychologist, consultant, author, international lecturer, media personality, and college professor, intuition is a trusted old friend that's becoming a breakthrough management tool.

Dr. Emery first understood intuition's wealth in 1970 through a dream in which her car brakes failed. The car rolled over several times, but she got out unharmed. The intuitive warning implicit in the dream was ignored, yet three days later her car was totaled when the brakes did indeed fail. Since then, her extensive clinical, academic and business experience has yielded rare insights into intuition's extraordinary manifestations and its strength as a tool for facilitating personal and professional transformation.

In 1983, Marcia Emery's launched her "Power Hunch" seminars. Now highly acclaimed, they've been presented to scores of individuals from such organization as Lucent Technologies, Amway Corporation, Blue Care Network, General Motors, Donnelly Corporation, Herman Miller Co., Hewlett Packard, Butterworth Hospital, Michigan Employment Security Commission, and Steelcase. In nearly two decades, she has witnessed the business world move from a position of wariness to one of genuine welcome. And today, with cyber-acceleration having spawned its own brand of psychic whiplash, intuition is much sought after by business folk to mitigate their frenzy, facilitate decision-making and fuel creativity.

In 1984, Dr. Emery pioneered the first college course in whole brain thinking at Aquinas College, Grand Rapids, Michigan. Entitled, Integrating Intuition and Logic for Managers, her students — Master of Management candidates from leading international corporations, government, and small business — became the first wave of decision makers formally trained in the new technique. Currently, Dr. Emery is a faculty member at the University of Philosophical Research; Dr. Carol Ritberger's Medical Intuition Training and Certification Program; the Kaiser Institute Program for Intuition, under the direction of Lee Kaiser, well-known visionary in the healthcare field; and at the Holmes Institute's Graduate School of Consciousness Studies. Dr. Emery serves on the advisory board of the Intuition Network, Online Noetic Network and the Anxiety and Phobia Peer Support Network.

As an expert on the workings of the intuitive mind, Dr. Emery's writings and public appearances have contributed greatly to the growing national interest in intuition. Her book, Dr. Marcia Emery's Intuition Workbook: An Expert's Guide To Unlocking the Wisdom of Your Subconscious Mind (Prentice Hall,1994) was deemed "a classic in the field" and selected by three book clubs (Doubleday, Rodale and Newbridge). The Intuitive Healer: Accessing Your Inner Physician, includes a foreword by renowned medical intuitive Caroline Myss, Ph.D. (St. Martins Press,1999) and Emery's third book, PowerHunch! Other works include several auditotape series: Intuition: How To Use Your Gut Instinct for Greater Personal Power (Nightingale-Conant, 1995), Intuition (Simon & Schuster,1996), The Intuitive Healer (Simon & Schuster, 1999). An earlier series called Infinity (IMCC, 1991) includes Intuitive Problem Solving and Intuitive Dream Interpretation

She has been featured in USA Today , Family Circle, Woman’s World. Her TV appearances include Between The Lines, CBS News in Sacramento, Alive and Wellness, The Other Side and Strange Universe.

Using Intuition To Make The Right Career Choices

One of the most agonizing decisions nearly everyone faces at one time or another has to do with some facet of career change. These work-related transitions come about in a variety of ways: the company you are working for decides to merge, downsizes, or goes out of business are obvious examples. Career transitions can also take place “in house” and frequently affect the upwardly mobile employee climbing the corporate ladder who savors various positions on the way to the top. Even the securely employed individual who seems relatively immune to any type of job upheaval dramatically confronts change when a rival company dangles the golden carrot to draw the “recruit” into a new job outside the present company.
