Abstract

Organizational learning is a significant aspect in every organization that aims for performance. Thus, identifying ways of managing organizational learning becomes relevant. Through this paper, we aim to identify and detail some ways of managing organizational learning from the literature and to propose some ways of managing it, based on the literature. The paper is original and innovative through our analysis of the literature, interpretation of the findings from the literature and through proposing certain new elements that are relevant for managing organizational learning. By managing organizational learning we refer to means, actions, strategies, practices and tools through which the process of organizational learning may be facilitated or the organizational learning capability may be enhanced. The results highlight the practices and tools identified in the literature. The paper is useful for both decision makers and employees who are interested in identifying and applying ways of managing organizational learning.
