Abstract

ABSTRACT The period of digital transformation that we are experiencing, called Industry 4.0, has marked a series of changes in the way we relate as a society, requiring constant adaptation and new knowledge on the part of companies and professionals. This study sought to contribute to the understanding of the relationship between the organizational learning culture in Information Technology companies based in Brazil, the work engagement, and the turnover intention of its employees. Among the results of the correlation and network analyses, it is shown that organizational actions aimed at connecting the organization to its environment dimension have a direct effect on work engagement. The high level of work engagement, on the other hand, has not been shown to reduce the turnover intention. The results of the study allow the identification of cultural aspects related to learning, which dimensions of culture are directly related to work engagement, and what are their impact on the turnover intention. They also evidence elements of the organizational culture to be prioritized in interventions, in addition to offering indications on how to develop professionals within the organizational routine.
