The company is particularly interesting because of its successful transition from a socialist company operating in a protected market to a privatized company operating in a capitalist global market, as well as the pivotal role of information technology (IT)\u2010supported organizational learning that brought about radical change and successful transition. Our investigation of Sava\u2019s experiences demonstrates how the company\u2019s increasing attention to organizational learning, integration of working and learning, and its constant innovation of products and processes created new needs for IT support that motivated the adoption of new IT systems (such as Lotus Notes, document management systems, SAP), which in turn increased Sava\u2019s capacity to learn. Furthermore, our study reveals how the role of IT systems in organizational learning depends on the nature of learning (single\u2010loop, double\u2010loop or triple\u2010loop learning) and the organizational level at which learning takes place (individual, group\/department or organization). By providing insight into the emergence of distinct types of IT\u2010supported learning and their vital role in Sava\u2019s successful transition, the paper contributes to a deeper understanding of the relationship between IT and organizational learning that is relevant and inspiring to other companies, especially those operating in transition economies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2575.2006.00228.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,1,13]],"date-time":"2007-01-13T06:54:50Z","timestamp":1168671290000},"page":"3-36","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Prospering
