Ontological Humility
Ontological humility can be described as the understanding that you are not the owner of
the truth and that you should respect and value other’s perspectives (Munro, 2020). Leaders are
self-aware and prioritize personal development. To become a strong leader, one must set goals to
achieve this. Ontological humility is the idea of manifesting reality that does accept how there
are three different realities in ontology, along with anyone who practices ontological humility in
elevating their reality in a way that respects themselves. In this paper, I will analyze ontological
humility, cognition, business model innovation, APA double-publishing, and bias.
Cognition
The cognitive differentiation is the structure of many components of importance or
individual concepts that an individual has to offer within their plan. Cognitive differentiation
refers to the number of different dimensions of meaning, or personal constructs, that person has
available within his or her system of meaning. Cognitive differentiation and integration are
interrelated because effective depends on effective differentiation.
However, the cognitive differentiation refers different data dimensions to compare
cognitive integration to create different connections between distinctive characteristics.
(Nurgaleeva, 2015). When important information is being given, this will allow the receiver of
the information to understand and have virtuous knowledge of the information given. To have
cognition is to mentally process this information given in the correct manner.
Business Model Innovation
The business model is the art of improving by making concurrent and supportive changes both to
a business value proposal to clients and its fundamental operation model. (Egfjord & Sund,
2019). Business model innovation is a prominent topic in science and management. The main

advantage of business model innovation is that it can be recognized as changing a current
business model or creating and executing a new one. (Matheus et. al., 2023).
The ideas must be relevant to today’s technology. Technology does change every year. Being
able to keep up with the technology takes a strong organization.
Ontological Humility
Ontological is not a word that is likely used in our everyday vocabulary. Ontology studies
concepts to our perception of reality, and the engagement in the systems of our lives (Munro,
2020). Synergy was one of the words that stood out to me while completing my reading. Having
virtuous synergy within a business that helps with the morale within the business. Being willing
to learn also is a part of ontological humility. Learning new things can enhance one’s self worth.
When new things are thought of you might have some resentment. Learning new things can also
be hard for those who like the routine of the same exact thing.
APA Double-Publishing
Double publishing can make some people frustrated. Also, this is where integrity comes
into play. The integrity of how someone acts towards the changes that are being made. Asking
for help when you don’t understand, along with accepting the suggestions for the change and
how it should be done. Double publishing is equivalent to plagiarism. Using the correct APA
format would elevate the double-publishing issue. When completing a research study using the
correct form of the APA format will make it easier to read and understand. When the sources are
cited correctly throughout the paper it allows for a uniformed arrangement. It will cause the
reader to assume things that are not true within the paper (APA, 2022).

Conclusion
The ontological humility are strong words that can be interjected in our daily life. Change is
forever in the world, and one should do their best not to reject it. Also, when the world changes
one should be able to find out what the change is and see if it's beneficial for them. Having a
business model innovation is essential for a company to be established. Having an innovation
department in your business can help your business expand. Nevertheless, for it to work,
everybody should come together. The articles that I read did a better job of explaining issues that
businesses may run into. Having humility is to be humble. To be very humble is being willing to
accept change within the workplace. All organizations experience changes at different times
within their business life span. Therefore, the business model innovation helps them see which
path they should take when making a major change.
