Abstract: The interest in the reengineering process of human resources and entrepreneurial learning contributes to enhancing the success of organizational revitalization, especially concerning corporate sustainability. This study builds a conceptual research framework and adopts the descriptive analytical approach based on the data of 239 samples from the employees working in travel and tourism companies in Malaysia. The findings indicate the existence of a statistically significant effect of human resources reengineering on various dimensions of organizational revitalization. Amongst them, pioneering/entrepreneurial learning as a moderating variable also has a significant and positive influence on organizational revitalization. The implications of this study mostly emphasize the necessity for travel and tourism companies to maintain their sustainability through reengineering human resources. In accomplishing strategic tasks for human resource development and achieving the strategic goals, these essential issues such as encouraging workers to innovate and continuously raising their awareness of entrepreneurship need to be acknowledged.
