title: [Core of the philosophy of management: self-management].
abstract: Philosophy is an aspect of metaphysics; while management, by contrast is a practical matter. In this century, this is especially crucial that management philosophy focuses on value and spiritual intelligence. However, the core of pragmatic management is the manager's emotional intelligence. The purpose of this paper is to expound a manager's own positive values and philosophy, as well as the manager's capacity for the management of his or her own emotions. Ultimately, under a spiritually and emotionally intelligent manager, all aspects of an organization--personnel, business issues, physical assets--will interact harmoniously and the organization will advance.
