Abstract

The current paper is on applied philosophy and is the outcome of an interdisciplinary philosophy and management research project. The paper advocates the presupposition that philosophy may help managers of organizations improve the efficiency and profitability of the collections under their control by providing services to them. The paper's claims are examined on three levels: renowned philosophers' ideas, various philosophical skills, and philosophical character and spirit. The traits of leaders from Aristotle's perspective are explored at the first level. The effects of critical thinking and rhetoric on managers are examined on the second level. Several successful managers-philosophers are introduced on the third level. In the end, the findings of this study demonstrate the necessity of interdisciplinary studies and applying philosophy, as well as the identification of organizational problems that philosophy may help to solve. The research's primary data is gathered by the library method, and the research method is rational data analysis.
