Abstract:
The innovativeness of an organisation results in economic growth which foster
organisational resilience. Learning is a significant capability for an organisation that
promotes innovation. Learning capabilities comprise absorptive capacity which
entails acquisition, assimilation, transformation, and exploitation. Organisations that
have a positive absorptive capacity attain success through being innovative. This
study will focus on the manufacturing and mining sectors within the scope of a
qualitative study. Dynamic capability theory will be the foundation upon which this
research is conducted.
