Abstract :
Management, in its modern sense, refers to the behavior that one, holding a managerial position, displays in order to conduct the organization under his control. This behavior is inevitably based on some theoretical principles. That is to say, the theoretical foundation of a manager's value systems and beliefs contributes to efficiently organizing his conduct. The basis of such underlying convictions might be either a function-based or an action-based philosophy. Thus, any management needs to be executed via a particular strategy which, in turn, might be informed or even dictated by the metaphysical views of the manager. This study presents a case-study of the impact of Khajeh Nezam-Al-Molk-eTousi's ideational and philosophical views on his managerial conduct. There are two reasons for the selection of this person.Firstly, Khajeh Nezam-Al-Molk is one of the most successful authoritative figures in the history of Iran highly praised andreputable for his innovative conduct. Secondly, evident in his managerial career and conduct is a particular type of strategy which can be regarded as the natural consequence of his profound understanding of the principles of Islamic political philosophy.
