Abstract
This paper presents a conceptual model that proposes how organization learning disorders influence organization performance. The model sugge sts that organization knowledge mediates the relationship between lear ning disorders and performance. Specific organization learning disorde rs are identified for each of the four phases of organization learning : discovery: invention, production, and generalization. The effect of learning disorders on organization knowledge is explored, and interven tion hypotheses for treating the disorders are presented.
