The effect of transparency on learning organizations mediated by knowledge sharing

Abstract

Developing a learning organization in an elementary school setting in Indonesia
necessitates a comprehensive approach that includes cultivating a culture of
continuous learning, collaboration, and creativity among teachers, students,
and administrators. One critical facet of this is improving elementary school
teachers’ instructional skills. This study sought to evaluate the impact of
transparency and information sharing on learning organizations. The research
participants were 242 elementary school teachers in West Java, Indonesia,
who were surveyed online. Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Square
(SEM-PLS) was involved to test the data collected and the proposed model.
The results show that transparency and knowledge sharing have a direct
effect on the learning organization. This study also notes the indirect effect
of transparency on the learning organization through knowledge sharing.
The main point of this study is that the learning organization can be predicted
by transparency and knowledge sharing. The study also notes that the teaching
competence of elementary school teachers in Indonesia can be improved
through a learning organization.
