This is for a character reference letter, which talks about someone who holds a position in a hotel.

a sense of what people want
una idea de lo que las personas quieren/ necesita


Explanation:
A sense can have many meanings, but in this case I believe it means that the person has an idea of what others need but not 100 percent sure.

Example sentence(s):
  • He has a sense of what we need fo the job.
  • El tiene una idea de lo que queremos para este trabajo.
