Abstract:
This research work aims to study the different definitions and concepts of organizational learning within organizations. Several researchers have worked to define organizational learning. However, we have found several works trying to define this concept. Thus, we tried to define the link between organizational learning and its sources, namely the environment, the work of the company on itself and the error or discrepancy, we also established a link between learning organizationalThis work constitutes a literature review of the various writings developed which allowed us to understand the notion of organizational learning and to clearly define it.Certainly several factors promote learning within organizations, but the existence of an organizational will and the ability to accept the out put of this learning prove to be the key factors for success.Duncan and Weiss (1979) explain that learning is "Knowledge of the causal links between the actions of the company and the reactions of the environment". While Dennis and Nanus (1985) explain that it is "A means by which the organization increases its potential for survival thanks to its ability to negotiate changes in the environment". A stable environment makes it easier to collect information, and the relationship between the environment and the organization is less uncertain. However, this type of environment can be detrimental to organizational learning as it presents little stimulusto the organization. Organizational learning can also be the result of the organization working on itself by analyzing and correcting previous errors or the process -Cyert, R. M. and March J. G. (1963, 1970). Decision-making process in the company. Paris: Dunod organizational. Organizations that have significant resources adopt an anticipatory learning process, which is neither passive nor reactive.
