Every enterprise faces various situations in different environments, which influences how they explain the environment and the strategies that they take. This research focuses on exploring the transformational strategies and puts emphases on discussing whether enterprises can transform by their learning when they used to be in the poor situations, while facing the dynamic environment. In the chance of transformation, the Taiwan¡¦s small and medium enterprises (TSME) lacked resources which can support them to do more. Due to rapidly changing conditions and the increasing pressure from the global competition, TSME are harder to make more a comprehensive decision than other enterprises which have great resources and big scales. However, they might get a chance to make a confidential decision for their adventure and flexibility.
The organizational learning not only improves the efficiency but also presents more chances to find out the opportunities and resources to make the enterprises grow rapidly. It is an access to the constant development for enterprises. The absorbing, creating, cumulating and diffusing of knowledge are the ways that every enterprise has to do, but we could see the differences within its method and degrees. These differences would be crucial for these organizational abilities. Furthermore, it would influence the chances they got or affluence the organizational transformation. The research was interested in the relation between organizational learning and organization transformation by analyzing organizational abilities. We divide organizational abilities into four dimensions: strategic competence, organization design, human resource management and leader.
The research finds that learning will influence four organizational abilities which we designed, especially the strategic ability and leader, which got a direct and crucial effect on organizational transformations. When corporations place emphasize on organizational learning, they would cause the abilities to influence each other and become better. Then, they would get more chances to transform and make it more efficiently.
