bThe present paper, which can be regarded as a kind of philosophical management study, is based on the hypothesis that philosophy and management can interact and thus enhance their ability and effectiveness. Based on this hypothesis, management can provide new subjects for philosophical reflections, and philosophy can also diversify and deepen the management and organizational studies. The claim of the role of philosophy in the field of management is not limited to managerial and organizational studies, but in this paper, the emphasis is placed on the fact that, in addition to the theoretical sphere, managers who have philosophical insights practically will be wiser, more influential and more successful executives. Ontology, epistemology, and ethics are three branches of the main branches of philosophy. These three branches are defined as independent variables in the present study and their impact on the dependent variable of management has been investigated. In connection with organizational ontology, it has been shown that managers' perception of the kind of existence their organizations have, can affect their perceptions of their organizational mission. The subject of organizational epistemology leads to the conclusion that the branch of epistemology can help managers fill in the existing gaps between knowledge and practice. The most important consequence of organizational ethics is that the managers are the ethics teachers of their organization. The relationship between wisdom and organizational maturity is the last topic discussed in this paper t variables in the present study and their impact on the dependent variable of management has been investigated.

Sustainability is relatedto the ability of organizations to monitor the opportunities, changes,trends and risks in their external environments and to make a balancebetween financial, economic, social and environmental goals of theorganization in the long term. In this article, initially, the last model oforganizational sustainability management proposed by InternationalOrganization for Standardization (ISO) has been introduced, thenusing a problem solving algorithm, and through a knowledgemanagement approach, a model for assessment and improvement ofthe organizational sustainability is suggested. This model is based onthe knowledge management of organizations’ environmental changes.To validate and prove the proposed model, the degree of sustainabilityin 52 governmental companies along with their holding structure andproduction nature were evaluated. The results revealed a highcorrelation between the ability of an organization to manageknowledge of its environmental changes and its degree ofsustainability.
