This section of JARMAC includes a series of commentaries on articles published in the September, 2015, special issue of JARMAC: "Modeling and aiding intuition in organizational decision making" . The commentaries focus on research programs such as naturalistic decision making, heuristics-and-biases, ACT-R, and CLARION. They feature topics ranging from evolution to decision styles. In this introduction, we provide a brief overview of those contributions, alongside with concluding words on this project of pulling together multiple and very different strands on intuition.Not too long ago, one of us stood, in the evening twilight, on top of a hill, letting his gaze wander across a valley. On the other side of the valley, the eye met distant trees, and then, all of a sudden, partly veiled by branches and wagering fog: a fallen column, remnants of an amphitheatre, and a small, round temple. These ruins were not built by ancient Rome's architects, as one might suspect, but crafted during the Enlightenment. The ruins' hidden, foggy romance contrasts with the aesthetics of a beautiful palace, built on the very same hill from which this scene unfolds. This palace is intact, characterized by ordered shapes, colonnades, and statues. It sits on top of that hill like a jewellery-braced crown, with majestic stairs reaching down and widening into an open park landscapethat of Sanssouci, Potsdam, Germany.The dialectics of these two polesthe ruins in the distance, dreamt-up re-creations of a once powerful empire, and the seemingly more modern palace with its intact golden lines, clear structure, and order on the hillis akin to the contrast that forms the central theme of this special issue and its commentaries: The savage, almost ancestral mysticism of intuition, gut feelings, and subjective hunches on the one hand, and the majestic, enlightened garments of reason, rationality, and careful analysis on the other hand.
