This book invites readers on an intellectual journey where the great minds of philosophy intersect with contemporary organizational challenges.

With classical and modern philosophical thought as its backbone, Philosophy and Management: Great Minds and Organizational Ideas demonstrates that the most renowned thinkers in human history, such as Aristotle, Confucius and Nietzsche, provide timeless wisdom for navigating the complexity of today’s business environments. Combining theoretical insights with practical applications, this book presents philosophical frameworks as robust foundations for decision-making, conflict resolution and leadership strategies. It explores crucial areas such as strategic management, human resources, ethics, corporate governance and innovation, challenging readers to explore management from a reflective and ethical perspective, and shows how philosophy equips leaders to build resilient and morally responsible organizations, which are essential in an age dominated by technological advancement and rapid societal changes.

The book fills a significant gap in management literature, which often lacks deep philosophical reflection on organizational practices. It draws on ancient, modern and postmodern thought, connecting these insights to current management theories, thus, making it an invaluable resource for both practitioners and scholars.
