Abstract

This study aims to explain the effect of organizational culture on both organizational learning and innovativeness. A large literature exists based on comparative studies on these concepts, which we addressed in a triangular relationship here. We conducted a survey consisting of three scales; Ogbonna and Harris (2000)-organization culture, Calantone et al (2002)-organizational learning and Wang and Ahmed (2004)-innovativeness, at a university hospital. We found that three concepts show high correlation, and organization culture has an effect on both organizational learning and innovativeness. We also found that organizational learning clearly effects the organizational innovativeness. Results show that organization culture is essential for organizational knowledge generation and use.
