Organisation Learners' Competence to Overcome Organisation's Learning Inertia: A Conceptual Framework
Arunprasad, P.
International Journal of Learning and Change, v8 n1 p42-63 2015
This paper identifies the interrelationship between the organisational learning (OL) characteristics, strategic human resource management (HRM) practices and the corresponding learning outcome for a sustained competitive advantage (SCA). Through a profound literature review, first, the knowledge assets (human capital), OL and strategic HRM are looked through the lens of SCA for developing a tighter link between OL and strategic HRM. Secondly, a conceptual framework is developed which encompasses the alignment between learning levels, such as reactors, predictors and pro-activators; learning outcomes and the learning enabled human resource (HR) practices. Thirdly, by imparting the theoretical assertions, the characteristics of learning levels are mapped appropriately to the proposed learning outcome dimensions and the corresponding learning enabled HR practices are tabulated. Fourthly, research propositions are stated in view of learning levels and learning enabled HR practices to enable the organisation learners for a significant impact on the learning outcomes. Lastly, managerial implications and the potential research questions are presented.
