“…Furthermore, the revelation made regarding continuous learning and performance of the staff is in line with the findings of Hussein et al (2016) and Behjanna and Sharifi (2015). This study also confirmed the studies of Aktar et al (2011), Wetherington and Daniels (2013), Harris and Samreen (2015) and Mrisha et al (2017) relative to the relationship inquiry and dialogue has with employee performance. It is also in line with the assertions of Marsick and Watkins (2003) and Yang and Chen (2005), bordering collaboration and team learning.…”

“…Similarly, Wetherington and Daniels (2013), on the relationship between learning organisation dimensions and employee performance in the non-profit sector, revealed that there exists a positive relationship between inquiry and dialogue and job performance. Mrisha et al (2017) also indicated a positive and strong relationship between inquiry and dialogue and staff performance.…”

“…More so, Wang, Yang and McLean (2007) and Wang and Yang (2007) aver that few studies have examined how demographic variables affect learning organisation. Researchers recommend that more empirical research is needed to investigate more specific areas within the public sector, especially in Africa, when it comes to the public higher education landscape (Ali & Ameer, 2016; Anand & Brix, 2022; Crossan, Maurer & White, 2011; Dekoulou & Trivellas, 2015; Mrisha, Ibua & Kingi, 2017; Nafei, 2015).

Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine effects of the human aspects of the learning organisation (i.e. continuous learning; inquiry and dialogue; team collaboration and learning; and employee empowerment) on the performance of a public university’s administrative staff. Differences in the human aspects of the learning organisation across perhaps the two most important demographic characteristics (educational attainment and years of experience) were also examined. Design/methodology/approach This study focused exclusively on the human aspect of the dimensions of the learning organisation questionnaire. Specifically, differences in the people aspect of learning organization (PALO) across demographic characteristics were analysed using the Kruskal–Wallis test with a Bonferroni adjustment to the alpha values in the Mann–Whitney U tests that followed. Hierarchical linear regression using the standard (enter) method was adopted in analysing the PALO and administrative staff performance while controlling for age and gender. Findings This study demonstrated that a difference in the PALO existed across the education level and years of experience of the administrative staff. Specifically, Diploma holders performed better than those with Postgraduate degree. Also, administrative staff with 5–10 years of experience did better than the staff who had more than 15 years of experience. In addition, continuous learning; inquiry and dialogue; and collaboration and team learning each had a significant effect on administrative staff performance. Practical implications Employees, especially those with higher levels of education and more work experience, should be motivated through rewards as well as challenging and thought-provoking tasks as they could serve as mechanisms that would make them contribute substantially to the sustainability of the PALO. Again, public universities should pay attention to the PALO, which is at the individual and team levels. Originality/value This study focuses solely on the people aspect of the dimensions of the learning organisation questionnaire and sheds light on its importance to the learning organisation culture.

“…In contrast, the other five dimensions (embedded systems, teamwork, leadership, continuous learning, and empowerment) had an insignificant relationship with the organizational performance. This is in line with the study reported in [62], which examined the effect of learning organization culture on organizational performance using the DLOQ to measure learning organization in Kenya. The results showed that the dimensions of collaboration and team learning and continuous learning had a positive but weak relationship with organizational performance, whereas employee empowerment had a positive but average relationship with the performance.…”

Due to the competitive and uncertain environment nowadays, organizations could respond to these environmental factors effectively by being more learning-oriented, where individuals and teams are encouraged to constantly learn and grow and knowledge is shared and disseminated throughout the organization. This may allow the organization to better understand its environment and respond to changing circumstances in a more effective and efficient way. By improving the organization towards learning organization, the organization could continuously improve its ability to adapt and change through the acquisition and application of new knowledge and skills. Moreover, intrapreneurship could assist organizations in adapting to internal and external environmental changes, which in turn could help firms to innovate and revitalize their businesses. To actualize this study, data were gathered from 263 managers in Jordanian pharmaceutical companies. The collected data were coded against SPSS 25, then normality, validity, and reliability were tested and multiple regressions were used to examine the hypotheses. Thus, this research found an effect for learning organization dimensions (supportive learning environment, concrete learning processes and practices, leadership that reinforces learning, and creating learning structures) on intrapreneurship the context of Jordanian pharmaceutical companies.

In an ever-changing business world, the need to gain a competitive advantage has become extremely imperative for enterprises to survive in the age of globalisation. Much emphasis on learning has arisen due to rapid changes in the business environment, including uncertain market conditions, increasing complexity, changing demographics, and global competition. The companies are forced to innovate and develop new techniques for improving the quality and functionality of products, reduce costs, and respond to the highly elegant customers' demands in order to survive in the market. Learning organisations encourage the groups to come together and explore new ideas without being directed by a manager. The main objective of the chapter is to measure the effect of the dimensions of the learning organisation on organisational performance. A positive statistical relationship exists among the learning organisation dimensions and with organisational performance. Organisations must consider the learning organisation dimensions to enhance employees efficiency and organisational performance.
