Research has provided evidence supporting the idea that an organizational learning
culture improves employee attitudes, e.g. job satisfaction. However according to Rowden and Conine the existing literature needs additional research in order "to further understand this apparently powerful link between workplace learning and job satisfaction. If this powerful link continues to surface in
other sectors and larger companies, managers concerned with the level of job
satisfaction among their employees may want to encourage more learning
opportunities in the workplace” also proposed that “continued efforts exploring the dynamics associated with interactions between organizational learning culture and employee satisfaction, learning, and performance are essential for the ongoing development of research and practice unique to HRD”.
In addition, many studies indicated the impact of organizational learning culture on firms’ financial performances. However, only a few studies have attempted to assess the relationship between OLC and nonfinancial outcomes, such as service quality or customers’ satisfaction. It has been supported that “nonfinancial measures are better predictors of long-term financial performance than current financial measures; they help refocus managers on the long-term aspects of their actions”
