The role of epistemological approach in management theories formation
The article presents an attempt to relate differences in approaches to epis-temology to the major differences between the existing management theories. The topicality of establishing this relation arises from the fact that the origination of a modern management theory called Knowledge Management, which is grounded on the idea that knowledge is the main strategic resource of any organization, resulted from the development of different views on management. Therefore understanding this relation would bring it to light how managers' views on knowledge were formed and would allow interconnections and discrepancies between different papers on Knowledge Management to be seen more clearly.
