Organizational learning program for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) presumes that the longer they stay and have more groups and activities in the program, the better in the assessment of organizational learning. This study seeks to assess organizational learning and preferred strategic factors of the program. Also it examines the relationships between each of those perceptions and the program involvement characteristics of SMEs. The result shows that the appropriate combination of the number of group and the number of activity improves the assessment of organizational learning. The perception on preferred strategic factors shows some significant differences among characteristics of firms. As firms increase the number of activities, to some extent, they would demand more supports. However, when they attain some equilibrium of the number of activity and supports, then their demand for support seems to be declined. When the firm is settled in the program and exerts its efforts for the organizational learning, selected and differentiated strategic factors should be ready to use. Evaluation of the organizational learning in the program should adopt rigid methods to provide prescriptive measures to the SMEs located in various levels in their organizational learning endeavors. The findings of the study will provide which characteristics are influential for the organizational learning efforts and the validity of the strategies used in the program.
Abstract
Organizational learning program for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) presumes that the longer they stay and have more groups and activities in the program, the better in the assessment of organizational learning. This study seeks to assess organizational learning and preferred strategic factors of the program. Also it examines the relationships between each of those perceptions and the program involvement characteristics of SMEs. The result shows that the appropriate combination of the number of group and the number of activity improves the assessment of organizational learning. The perception on preferred strategic factors shows some significant differences among characteristics of firms. As firms increase the number of activities, to some extent, they would demand more supports. However, when they attain some equilibrium of the number of activity and supports, then their demand for support seems to be declined. When the firm is settled in the program and exerts its efforts for the organizational learning, selected and differentiated strategic factors should be ready to use. Evaluation of the organizational learning in the program should adopt rigid methods to provide prescriptive measures to the SMEs located in various levels in their organizational learning endeavors. The findings of the study will provide which characteristics are influential for the organizational learning efforts and the validity of the strategies used in the program.
