    Purpose: This paper explains the key dimensions of practical knowledge. It is argued that practical knowledge and practice are two sides of the same phenomenon and possess objective and subjective dimensions.

Research Implications: The proposed framework complements practice-oriented management research.

The proposed framework might assist in this task since it recognises different configurations of practice and their associated PK.
