Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to determine the dominant leadership characteristics that reinforce learning in public and private sector organizations. It will also compare the extent to which both sectors—private as well as public— support leadership that reinforces learning. Important contributing factors were leaders’ behavior with employees, leaders’ characteristics, communication, employee feelings, time for problem identification, knowledge transfer, and reflective post audits. A part of David Garvin’s tool of learning organizations was adopted as an instrument in this study. Through comparison of Means and sum of Means it is concluded that level and extent of leadership which reinforces learning behavior differs substantially in public and private sectors. It is derived that the extent of leadership that reinforces learning is greater in private sector than in public sector.
