As a solution for the prompt adaptation to an instable environment, organizational studies suggest promoting organizational learning and creating some organizations that are capable of learning (“learning organization”). But what does learning mean and how can it become an attribute of an economic entity? In order to obtain an answer to this question a research had been developed.
