The study aims at analyzing and reconciling divergent viewpoints regarding the meaning of knowledge. The investigative exercise aims at exploring the existing epistemological literature to arrive at some meaningful definition of the term suitable for managerial purposes. Traditional view of equating knowledge with objective truth actually refers to the environmental frame in which it is formulated. In defining knowledge, the researchers therefore prefer the contextual model which resembles the constructivist approach to reality. Constructivism presupposes absence of objectivity and absolute truth. As such, bits of reality contained in our knowledge are relative to the environment which we only construct in our minds on the basis of our typical sensory input. Knowledge is, therefore, recognized today as representation of reality in relative rather than in absolute terms.
