This paper is an attempt to study what is meant by Phrónêsis, how it might be understood, reinterpreted, applied, and extended in contemporary professional management practice and its role in enhancing professional excellence in modern managers. Phrónêsis can equip them for learning through experience, exercising praxis and having a universal and multi-perspective vision and multi-perspective vision and, substantially enhances the levels of self-concept, communication, decision making and interpersonal skills, conditions that are critical to excellence in professional management. The Phrónêtic managers can employ all competencies in its totality. The ideas in this paper will be of use to human resources practitioners and academicians interested in the professional development of managers within organizational settings and classroom settings.
