Learning-oriented organizations, which give precedence to acquiring, sharing, and applying knowledge, assume a pivotal role in assisting enterprises in managing it through this ever-changing landscape. This study investigates the link between learning organizations, business excellence, and organizational performance in India’s information technology (IT) sector. This study is a descriptive one and based on primary data collected from 384 employees working in IT companies in Bangalore. The findings revealed significant correlations between learning organization and business excellence (r = 0.922) and suggest that organizations with a strong learning culture tend to excel in business performance. Additionally, the study highlights variations in perceptions based on employees’ tenure, management level, annual revenue, and workforce size. The study revealed that learning organization significantly impacts the excellence of businesses (r2 = 0.851). The paper underscores the importance of fostering learning organizations in achieving business excellence and offers valuable insights for IT companies seeking to enhance their competitive edge. Further research in diverse contexts and industries is recommended to enhance the comprehension of the relationship between organizational learning and performance.
