Learning Organizations Empower Employees
Skill and knowledge acquisition are obviously useless unless they can be transferred to the job by the employee. It is even more advantageous if this knowledge can also be transferred to other parts of the organization to solve problems. Learning organizations not only encourage these practices but also have mechanisms or systems that encourage them to take place. Part of this knowledge transfer involves benchmarking, or learning successful practices from other organizations and competitors as well. Such benchmarking activities ensure that organizations are always learning to improve their management processes and their products or services.
