The effect of organizational learning mechanisms on strategic innovation capacity

Aim and Introduction: Changing and rapid alteration is the feature of this century. For revolution we need knowledge and wisdom that able us to create new values in which take share among competitors. The purpose of organizational learning is to enable manegers and staffs for countering turbulent environment and aiming competitive advantages.The only organization power source and stability is fast learning. The primary purpose of organizational learning is increasing quality and quantity of performance which growth the strategic capabilities and make the firm to gain competitive advantages. According to the importance of strategic innovation in organizational development and improvement and the importance of strategic innovation in sustainable competitive advantage, this paper tries to examine the relationship between organizational learning and strategic innovation capacity.Methodology: This research is applied one in terms of purpose and descriptive-survey in terms of nature (data collection method). In terms of evaluating the relationships between research variables is a correlation analysis. The statistical society are employees of Nano technology firms which are 164 according to Cochran formula. Cronbach's alpha test was used to evaluate the reliability of the research questionnaire. A questionnaire was used to assess the adequacy of the factors in order to confirm the confirmatory factor of Bartlett and KMO tests. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to check the normality of the data for parametric and non-parametric tests. Since the variables are normal, Pearson correlation coefficient has been used to investigate the correlation coefficient between the variables. In order to evaluate the construct validity of the research indicators, in order to analyze the research data, SPSS software version 21 and the structural equation method of PLS ​​software have been used.Findings: In this research a PLS analysis on survey data suggests that strategic innovation capacity is strengthened when managers deliberately install specific learning mechanisms on the three dimensions of absorptive capacity: knowledge recognition, assimilation and exploitation.Results showed a significant positive correlation among the research variables, so learning mechanisms have impact on strategic innovation capacity.Discussion and Conclusion: Organizations’ successful growth strategies in mature industries have raised scholars’ interest in “disruptive innovation”.some successful d
