The collected data was based on a total of 157 managers from the manufacturing industries will be evaluated by applying the PLS-SEM and fsQCA. The empirical outcomes based on PLS-SEM analysis demonstrate that organizational learning positively impacts on knowledge donating and knowledge collecting. This study confirms that both the knowledge donating and knowledge collecting act as mediators in mediating the positive relationship between organizational learning and the technological innovation practice. The fsQCA results indicate that the conditional support for the proposed antecedent and outcome expectation of the organizational learning. Moreover, the findings of fsQCA analysis also show that the complex solutions with three combinations sufficiently explain the technological innovation practice.
