Summary
1.1 Background The complexity and high turbulence of today requires every company to have the right strategy, to face competitive competition. (Palmer and Hardy, 2000) say that learning activities are one of the important strategic aspects to face competitive competition in order to achieve the company's competitive advantage. Learning itself has a definition that is an important process whereby individuals within the organization are able to gain new knowledge and can improve behaviors and actions taken to a better direction, as Stata says:. Learning orientation is a strategic aspect in which individuals within a company have a level of commitment to learn, share vision and use open thinking within the organization (Nybakk, 2012; Bature and Hin, 2017). When the individual has three instructional orientation indicators: commitment to learning, shared vision and open-ended attitudes are expected to be their driving force in improving and modifying their behavior in a better direction as Stata (1989) argues and supporting in the creation and use of knowledge Zhou et al, (2015) which will serve as a driver for improving the company's performance
