Purpose – The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of organizational learning culture as an enabler of knowledge-sharing behaviours and workplace spirituality. A model is proposed to examine the mediating role of knowledge-sharing behaviours between organizational learning culture and workplace spirituality. Design/methodology/approach – Employees from various Thai industries participated in the study, and structural equation modelling was used to test hypothesized relationships. Findings – Results suggest a positive relationship between organizational learning culture and workplace spirituality, partially mediated by knowledge-sharing behaviours. Research limitations/implications – The study was limited to Thailand, and is a cross-sectional design. Further investigation into the causality of relationships and cultural disparities is needed. Practical implications – Friendly learning environments enable both knowledge sharing and change organization members’ views regarding learning and performance improvements for organizational sustainability. Originality/value – This paper bridges a gap between theory and practice concerning the outcomes of organizational learning and factors that lead to workplace spirituality.

The old research revealed that job attitudes were not correlated by a knowledge sharing behavior. This research develops to investigate the role organizational learning culture in context relations forming knowledge sharing behavior. Using a survey, 100 person graduates from Work Training Center involved as a respondent in this project from periods 2019 to 2020. This research was conducted with a quantitative method’s include variables job attitude, OCB, organizational learning culture, and knowledge sharing behavior. The data were measured by likert scale from 1 to 5 and collected by using a questionnaire measure. Research model develops with job attitudes as an independent variable, OCB as a mediation variable, organizational learning culture as a moderator variable and knowledge sharing behavior as a dependent variable was supported by SmartPLS3. The output investigation reveals that job attitude is a significantly factor linked to knowledge sharing behavior, and also correlated to organizational citizenship behavior. The other situation create that organizational citizenship behavior was not a significant variable on knowledge sharing behavior, and also OCB was not a mediation variable for knowledge sharing behavior. The exploration discloses that organizational learning culture has a moderate significant weather OCB towards knowledge sharing behavior or job attitude towards OCB, but insignificant for job attitudes on knowledge sharing behavior. Study concluded that job attitude has a significant outcome on OCB and knowledge sharing behavior. Organizational learning culture provides a strengthening of the association between job attitudes towards OCB and the association between OCB and knowledge sharing behavior. The study gives a new contribution that job attitudes affect both on OCB and on knowledge sharing behavior and organizational learning culture moderate job attitudes on OCB and OCB on knowledge sharing behavior, but not moderate job attitudes on knowledge sharing behavior. This study has limitations on several indicators of OCB and organizational learning culture while there are still other indicators, so the researcher recommends the necessity to practice other indicator that are not covered as a new research agenda in future. The results of the study indicate the direct effect of job attitudes on knowledge sharing behavior is still weak, so the researcher suggested a future research to test the organizational learning culture as a moderator variable that can provide strengthening of knowledge sharing behavior in other sectors such as in business or public sectors.
