Abstract

This paper examines how a learning organization affects product quality performance from a behavioral operations perspective. Drawing on social information processing theory and social capital theory, we develop a theoretical model proposing (1) how a learning organization positively affects product quality performance through internal integration and (2) how employees’ supply chain management competencies amplify this relationship. We test our model using a longitudinal survey with three waves of data collection from employees in leadership positions in operations, manufacturing, and production functions located in the United Kingdom. Our findings support the proposed relationships. These results highlight the importance of aligning organizational processes and employees’ competency development in driving cooperative work across functions and enhancing product quality performance.
