Organizational learning and innovation: knowledge management contributions to propose a corporate environment focused on learning and innovation

Changes in the productive world have been accompanied by a new nature of career trajectories, characterized as multidirectional, with dynamicity and fluidity. If people once served organizations, dedicating entire lives to work, in the contemporary world the expectation is the reverse: organizations are expected to serve people in relationships whose duration can be easily reduced - which is a challenge to the institutions of work. The 21st century significantly demonstrates the use of knowledge which breaks paradigms by raising new organizational values. The knowledge society is established. Themes such as organizational learning (OL) and organizational innovation are essential in the current context of work. They represent the tools and perspectives that can imply in the permanence of the collaborators in the organization, and also, in collaborators contribution to the achievement of the organizational objectives. The new work environment is characterized by a social change resulting from globalization and the advancement of technologies and it is up to the management of knowledge to guide, maintain and promote spaces for the socialization of knowledge. The present study, based on a bibliometric review, tried to analyze how the themes innovation and OL relate to KM. The results point out that, although the KM is considered an important strategy in the enhancement of OL and innovation, it is still little emphasized, sometimes acting only at specific moments in organizational activities. There is a need for further studies to deepen the importance of KM related to OL and innovation.
