Ralph Hummel's body of work is substantial. Especially in the area of phenomenology, his special expertise, and his impact on public administration theory are unsurpassed. Hummel's advocacy of the practical application of theory based on the true meaning of experience, and on what we know and how we know phenomena, was central to his life's work. His seminal article "The Stories Managers Tell: Why They Are as Valid as Science" captures the essence of his previous and subsequent writings. I will explain how his work has influenced my own, especially the knowledge analytic. Warning: This assessment is brief and does not constitute a complete assessment of Hummel's scholarship
