Purpose- The purpose
of this study is to determine the ability and to analyze the effect of leverage
factors of learning to product quality in Wooden House Industry at Woloan
District, North Sulawesi, Indonesia, as well as to predict the probability of
this industry to produce quality products.
Methodology-
To answer these purposes, the Logistic Regression is being applied to 38
firms and customers. There
are 22 firms that are able to produce good quality and 16 firms that produce less quality. Predictly, there are 19
firms that are able to produce good quality, 12 firms that produce less
quality, and 3 firms that obviously are able to produce good quality but
predictably unable to produce good product, and 4 firms that obviously produce less quality, but predictably will be
able to produce good quality.
Findings- The leverage
factors of learning have a significant effect on product quality.
Simultaneously, all factors have significant effect on the product quality,
partially, factors of knowledge acquisition, knowledge assimilation and
knowledge exploitation have significant effect, except knowledge
transformation.
Conclusion- It can be
concluded that learning process should be applied as a routine and sustainable
activity for this industry to produce quality products. The role of management
in this process is to acquire new and relevant knowledge, to utilize and
optimize knowledge, to increase research and development, to optimize human
resources, to initiate new thinking, to innovate new product, and to identify
new solutions to solve problems.
