Promoting relationship learning
The authors develop a theory of how management can develop and promote the learning capabilities of targeted customer-supplier relationships. The theory suggests that a supplier and a customer can improve their joint learning activities by facilitating information exchange, developing common learning arenas, and updating their behavior accordingly. The authors suggest that learning within a customer-supplier relationship cannot be mandated by either organization, but rather learning depends on both parties' willingness to cooperate in joint learning activities. Management can promote relationship learning activities by cultivating a collaborative culture, formulating specific objectives for joint learning activities, and developing relational trust. The authors use data from 315 dyads to test the theory empirically, and they find that the learning capability of a relationship has a strong, positive effect on performance. Their results also provide insight into how to address the hidden costs of trust.Printed Journal
