workplace learning, expansive and restrictive learning environment, knowledge intensive medium-sized enterprise, HRM practiceAbstract
In this study, the authors examined the correlations between the learning characteristics of knowledge-intensive medium-sized companies and HR practices. The concept of an expansive and restrictive learning environment is used, which contributes to a deeper analysis of the process of learning in the workplace. Their assumption was that the expansive or restrictive nature of the learning environment would be dynamically related to the company’s HR practices. To analyse this, they used the case study method and present the correlations through two cases. According to their results, the quality of the learning environment is not necessarily related to the nature of the organization’s activities, nor can it be directly related to effective functioning.
