The Role of a Learning Organisation in Enhancing Lecturer Performance at Bojonegoro University

Abstract

This research aims to explore how Learning Organisation affects lecturer performance at Bojonegoro University. Learning Organisation is a concept introduced by Peter Senge in "The Fifth Discipline", which emphasises the importance of organisations continually learning and adapting to create the desired future. In the context of higher education, this concept can create areas that support lecturers' long-term development. This is expected to improve their performance in various fields such as teaching, research, and community service. The research procedure used is library research, which involves collecting and analysing literature related to the concept of Educational Organisation and its implementation in a large learning context. Various literature sources, such as books, journals, scientific articles, and research reports, were reviewed to gain an in-depth understanding of this topic. The research results show that key elements of Learning Organisations, such as people development, systemic thinking, mental models, shared vision, and team education, play a significant role in improving lecturer performance. Lecturers who are active in the ongoing educational process tend to be more innovative, collaborative, and adaptable to change. In conclusion, applying the Learning Organisation concept at Bojonegoro University has great potential to improve lecturer performance and the overall quality of education. Based on these findings, the research also provides several practical suggestions for implementing Learning Organisations, including improving professional development programs for lecturers, strengthening supporting infrastructure, and promoting a dynamic and collaborative learning culture in the university environment.
