To Determine the Relationship between Employee's Empowerment and Organizational Learning in Physical Education Organization

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between employees’ empowerment and organizational learning in Physical Education Organization. The research used a descriptive correlation method. Statistical population consisted of all employees in Physical Education Organization (N=722) and based on Cochran sampling method, 250 subjects were selected for the statistical sample. The data were gathered by questionnaires of personal characteristics, Spreitzer empowerment (a=0.88), and Scheffe’s organizational learning (?=0.87). Descriptive and inferential statistics such as Pearson correlation coefficient, Kolmogorov Smirnov and multivariate regression analysis were used to analyze the data (a=0.01). Also, SPSS 15 and EXEL software was used. The results showed a positive and powerful significant relationship between impact (r = 0.496), competence (r = 0.241), meaningfulness (r = 0.186) with organizational learning (P=0.01, r=0.830). Multivariate regression analysis showed that out of five dimensions of empowerment, only three dimensions (meaningfulness, competence, and impact) determined approximately 79% of organizational learning variance (P<0.01).
