Thinking Managers can Enhance Their Performance through Psychological and Spiritual Dynamic Attitudes within Learning Organizations

Linah Askari

Abstract—Building of Learning Organizations requires the enhancement of Psychological and Spiritual Dynamic Attitudes of the Managers. Author‟s Learning Model 2012 reveals that „Learning as a complex process starts from the functioning of an individual‟s interconnected eight senses, leads to eight types of perceptual learning. These perceptual learnings provide formation of attitudes to fulfill the needs for seven major value systems‟. These attitudes of the managers whether dynamic or dysfunctional, pave the path of success or failure respectively, for the performance within an Organization. This research tends to investigate whether Organizations support and use “learning” at an individual, team and organizational level to improve their performance. And that improvement in their performance has direct relationship with psychological and spiritual dynamic attitudes of their Managers. Results showed that Cronbach's Alpha = .938 for all six items. Significant 2- tailed Correlations at the 0.01 level for DAS Psychological at Individual organizational level = .719** and Team level=.782** at Organizational level =.779** & at Organizational Performance level=.812** whereas for DAS Spiritual at Individual level =.610** at Team level = .713** at Organizational level = .665** & at Organizational Performance level=.714**.

Index Terms—Dynamic attitudes, learning organizations, psychological and spiritual, thinking managers.
