About this Episode: ERP Organizational Learning and Performance Improvement
In this episode, we discuss “ERP Organizational Learning and Performance Improvement”. With our Guest, Carol Panza. Carol shares pointers and insights into how effective and efficient learning and development advocates for performance improvement which advocates for successful ERP organizational change.
Knowledge sharing and organizational learning are two organizational culture influences that contribute to ERP organizational change success. Organizations that can recognize, advocate for, and adequately execute knowledge-sharing and organizational learning tactics increase the likelihood of performance and success. Organizational learning is positively associated with organizational improvement, development, and, therefore, success. Knowledge-related influences facilitate organizational performance and improvement and thus play a significant role in improving the effectiveness of ERP organizational change. This requires that the organization has a general culture of sharing and learning. Acceptance, understanding, and mindset amongst stakeholders regarding the value of knowledge sharing and organizational learning during a large-scale ERP implementation is a critical success factor. In fact, organizational learning takes deliberate intent to embed learning as an organizational culture asset. In this episode, we will explore this topic further.
