\"\"<\/p>\n

An (unhappy) engineer by discipline, Professor Tsoukas migrated to the social sciences, and found his intellectual home in organization and management studies. He is not a philosopher but can\u2019t help but see everything from a philosophical point of view. He is not a complexity scientist but can\u2019t help but approach everything in terms of, Gregory Bateson\u2019s memorable phrase, \u201cthe pattern that connects\u201d. Author and editor of several books in English and Greek, his research publications have appeared in the most distinguished international journals of organizational and management research. He is best known for his contributions to understanding organizations as knowledge and learning systems, for re-viewing organizational phenomena through the lens of process philosophy, for exploring practical reason in organizational contexts as well as the epistemology of reflective practice in management, and for bringing insights from Aristotelian, Wittgensteinian and Heideggerian philosophy to organization and management studies. He was Editor-in-Chief of the leading journal\u00a0Organization Studies<\/em>\u00a0and is the co-founder and co-organizer of the\u00a0International Symposium of Process Organization Studies<\/em>. In recognition of his \u201cconsiderable, original and sustained contribution to his field at the highest international level\u201d, Professor Tsoukas was awarded the Doctor of Science (D.Sc.) degree by the University of Warwick in July 2014.<\/p>\n
