Abstract
Purpose – The purpose of this issue is to provide an overview of the special issue on practical wisdom for management from the Jewish traditions. Design/methodology/approach – The guest editorial introduces the papers in this special issue, focusing in practical wisdom for management from the Jewish traditions. Findings – The question on the relationship between the Jewish tradition and practical wisdom for management is answered in two different ways: first, providing a particular Jewish answer to managerial problems and second, presenting how Judaism can be a field of reflection learning for managerial praxis at both organizational and individual level. Originality/value – The paper shows that the special issue offers insights into the value of practical wisdom of the Jewish traditions, from two particular points of view, as a guide for action and as an ethical approach to management.
