Abstract

Due to environmental turmoil, many companies today have no choice but to link organizational learning levels with their intellectual capital, because the potential consequences of such strategies enable companies to be superficial by stimulating motivational levels in the context of environmental change. Realizing intellectual maturity paves the way for sustainability in companies' competitive processes. The purpose of this research is Intellectual Capital Maturity Evaluation based on Themes of Ambidextrous Learning Link. In this study, theoretical screening based on similar research was used to identify the components (intellectual capital maturity) and research propositions (ambidextrous learning link). Then, Delphi analysis was used to determine the reliability of research components and propositions through the participation of 16 management specialists and experts. In the quantitative part, the components and propositions identified in the form of matrix questionnaires were evaluated by interpretive analysis by 22 managers, officials and experts at different levels of knowledge-based companies. The results showed that the proposition of strategic tendencies in learning is considered as the most effective themes of the two-way learning link in the studied companies, which strengthens the sustainability of knowledge creation as an effective component in the maturity of intellectual capital. This result shows that strategic trends through the sustainability and effectiveness of identifying environmental capacities, enable the company to acquire knowledge based on environmental changes and by combining them to increase productivity and institutionalize the capacity to absorb and create knowledge as a value.
