Abstract

The research aimed to identify the level of reliance of sports and scouting activity departments on learning dynamics in their organizational environments, as well as to identify the level of possession of sports and scouting activity departments of the characteristics of the organizational innovation climate, as well as to identify the role that learning dynamics may play in driving the organizational innovation climate within sports and scouting activity departments. The researcher used a descriptive approach, using surveys and correlation methods. The researcher defined the research community as technical supervisors working in the sports and scouting activity departments affiliated with the education directorates in Baghdad Governorate, numbering (190) technical supervisors belonging to (6) departments. The researcher chose all technical supervisors to represent the primary research sample, which the researcher divided into three sub-samples: the exploratory study sample with a number of individuals reaching (10) supervisors, the statistical analysis sample with a number of individuals reaching (108) supervisors, and the final application sample with a number of individuals reaching (72) supervisors. With the aim of Collecting the required data for the research. The researcher prepared research tools. The first tool is the learning dynamics scale in the sports and scouting activity departments, with a number of paragraphs amounting to (15) paragraphs. The second tool is the organizational innovation climate scale with a number of paragraphs amounting to (15) paragraphs, and to answer the paragraphs of the two tools, the researcher put five-weight answer alternatives, which are (strongly agree, agree, somewhat agree, disagree, strongly disagree), and after completing the application of the tools and extracting the required results and processing them statistically, the researcher reached a set of conclusions, which are: The sports and scouting activity departments rely on learning dynamics in their organizational environments at a low level from the point of view of their technical supervisors. The environments of the sports and scouting activity departments have an average level of organizational innovation climate characteristics from the point of view of their technical supervisors. The possession of the sports and scouting activity departments to learn dynamics in their environments plays an influential role in driving their organizational innovation climate.
