How does learning organizational culture makes profits for Newbury Comics?

      Newbury Comics not only recognizes trust, respect, and quality of products and services, but also offers more selection (one-stop-shopping experience with fun and good time), and supports “independent artists and cultural visionaries and realizes the importance of offering pop culture that amuses, entertains and/or challenges our customers’ perceptions of the world” (Newburycomics.com, 2009, p.1). Recognizing independent artists and pop culture are very significant in the progress and support of learning organizational culture, innovation, and social understanding.  In the research of the relation between organizational culture and the degree of shaping learning public organization.Fard, Rostamy, and Taghiloo (2009) analyze and argue thatgreat learning organizational culture “has the highest influence culture among bureaucratic, competitive, participative, and learning organizational culture. The findings suggest that… learning public organizations develop programmers that improve organizational learning culture, learning and creativity, system thinking, team working, and participation level in their organizations” (p.58). In other words, good learning organizational culture, such as Newbury Comics (e.g., opening communication, and recognizing employees’ ideas and customers’ opinions), not only can and do adapt to changing environments or competitive markets, but also brings in new strategic planning and marketing, and becomes a largest chain store of pop culture in New England with 28 retailers.
