    Final Paper

    Write a 2,100- to 2,450-word position paper describing your individual epistemology and its relationship to your work and profession. At minimum, discuss the following:

    • Your justified views on the nature of knowledge
    • The purpose of knowledge and the means by which it is acquired
    • The application of knowledge to the tasks of leadership and management in the organization or profession in which you work
    • Whether your individual epistemology agrees or disagrees with the implicit or explicit epistemology of your profession

    Note. Your completed paper must reflect your familiarity with major epistemological themes and concepts covered in the readings and should do justice to traditional philosophical epistemology and insights of organizational epistemology. Your paper must refer to relevant passages in the source material, specify authors who have had the greatest effect on your thinking, and indicate insights gained through class discussion.

    Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.
