The factors that were found to exhibit an average correlation of 0.2 or higher with the
performance indicators were “open communications and information sharing” (r = 0.27),
“resource availability” (r = 0.27), “risk taking and new idea promotion” (r = 0.24), and “high
performance team environment” (r = 0.22). It is interesting to note that the average correlations
between the learning related dimensions and performance indicators were found to be in the low
range. In particular, the average correlation of “positive training transfer and continuous
learning climate”, “support for learning and development”, and “knowledge management” with
the performance indicators were 0.13, 0.10, and 0.08 respectively. In the meantime, the
“rewards for learning, performance, and ideas” factor was found to exhibit an average correlation
