“According to recent research by the neurobiologist Damasio and the psychologist Gigerenzer it is the aim of this paper to point out the limits of plainly cognitive approaches to decision-making and problem-solving in context of business and economy and – by showing the significance of emotions and (gut) feelings in decision and problem-solving processes – to contribute theoretically to an essential improvement of knowledge management practice, which can lead to a decisive competitive advantage of an organization or an enterprise.”
