Phronesis as Professional Knowledge

Abstract

The contributors to this book have brought to the surface the complexity of thought surrounding current understandings of phronesis—what it means and what it may mean for professional work and education. In our concluding thoughts, we first draw together reflections from the chapters to consider emerging insights concerning phronesis as professional knowledge. We then explore some of the implications of taking phronesis seriously as an organising framework for professional practice. Finally, some concluding reflections are presented.
