The general objective was to establish the organizational learning in Sarova Whitesands and its influence on performance. The specific objectives were to determine the influence of team learning, mental models, personal mastery and a shared vision on performance of Sarova Whitesands. The study was guided by organizational learning theory, human capital theory and resource based view theory. The study adopted a descriptive research design. The target population of the study was the staff of Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort and Spa. The study’s total number of respondents was 300 employees who were sampled using stratified proportionate sampling method to obtain a sample size of 171 respondents. Questionnaires were used as a data collection instrument and the data collected from the field was analysed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis. The study established that personal learning, mental models, shared vision and team learning had a positive and significant influence on organizational performance. The study concludes that personal mastery enables an employee to search for their life direction and purpose, identify their strengths and weaknesses and become responsible of their action. Mental models leads to advantages of scale in that which refers to an idea that as an organization performs more and more of the same type of work it will tend to acquire efficiencies over time and as an organization becomes more efficient at a task it often gains a competitive advantage as a result improved organizational performance. Shared vision acts as a unifying force, has a positive impact on organizational performance and provides the guidance employees need to make the right decisions and that team learning allows individual participants to work through the content at their own pace. The study recommends that the organization should help their employees to know how to deal with difficult and challenging situations, develop self-confidence and self-esteem, accept imperfection and build on one’s strength. The organization should offer different kinds of mental models to help their employees make sense of the real world and be able to understand and interpret the environment and themselves. The organization’s shared vision should offer a unified framework for the organization's success so as to encourage the top managers to collaborate and to resolve conflicts creatively arising from the organization and that the organization should establish a climate for learning in the team because taking time to establish the environment and the processes for learning is the prerequisite for rapid learning and effective team performance in the future.

ABSTRACT Accounting researchers are becoming increasingly interested in the performance effects of business intelligence (BI) systems in their role as management control systems. Extant research focuses on the performance effects of adopting and implementing such systems. However, there is less known about how organizations use the information in BI systems for management control once implemented, and whether the use of this information translates into organizational performance. We utilize the theoretical connection between information systems and organizational learning to explain the performance effects of BI system use through organizational learning. Evidence from recent literature indicates the need for organizations to engage in exploitation and exploration learning in pursuit of organizational ambidexterity. Our study draws on agenda setting and framing theories to provide insights that will enable organizations to strategically use the information in two fundamental BI systems to emphasize either or both modes of learning. Subsequently, we examine whether the two modes of learning translate into performance.

This chapter introduces the framework and the practical concepts of Human Resource Management (HRM), organizational learning, Knowledge Management Capability (KMC), and organizational performance. This chapter also explains the role of HRM, organizational learning, and KMC on organizational performance. The developed framework presents the relationship among the constructs (i.e., HRM, organizational learning, KMC, and organizational performance) and contributes toward a better understanding of the specific mechanisms through which HRM, organizational learning, and KMC positively influence organizational performance. HRM effectively acts as a trigger toward effective organizational learning and KMC processes, thus creating a valuable organizational performance. Organizational performance that can usually help to perform a task in an integrated manner is a source of sustainable competitive advantage. Understanding the role of HRM, organizational learning, KMC, and organizational performance through the framework will significantly enhance the organizational performance and achieve business goals in the modern business world.

SHRM strategically utilizes organizational resources and talent within HR functions to make organizations more effective in the modern workforce. Organizational learning and KM allow for organizational employees to share knowledge and learn exactly what is relevant to their specific tasks toward encouraging human capital and knowledge creation. The chapter argues that promoting SHRM, organizational learning, and KM has the potential to enhance organizational performance and achieve strategic goals in modern organizations.
