Abstract
This study delves into the intricate relationship between Absorptive Capacity, Organizational Learning, and the Learning Organization. It introduces Absorptive Capacity 4.0, a dynamic framework that traces an organization's evolution towards a comprehensive Learning Organization by redefining absorptive capacity to include value realization, multi-layered learning processes, and strategic adaptability. Emphasizing continuous adaptation, the research demonstrates how firms excel by adjusting their learning strategies to embrace technological advancements and market dynamics. Through empirical analysis and reconceptualization, it highlights the importance of a robust absorptive capacity framework for organizational competence, sustainable innovation, and competitive advantage. The study concludes a practical exploration using a case study of an SME, aligning its strategic adaptability with the Absorptive Capacity 4.0 model, It also suggests implications for future research and advocating for a shift towards a learning-centric organizational culture in various industries.
