The purpose of this study was to examine the moderating effect of self-directed learning between the
levels of learning organization and individual job performance. Two levels of learning culture, people level
and structural level, were explored as predicting variables, and two individual performance factors,
organizational commitment and job performance, were explored as criterion variables. Data were collected
from 204 sales people at a Korean conglomerate through online survey. For the data analysis, correlation
and hierarchical regression analyses were performed using SPSS. The findings are as follows: First,
self-directed learning did not moderate the relationship between people level learning culture and
organizational commitment. Second self-directed learning played as a moderator between people level
learning culture and performance. Third, self-directed learning moderated the relationship between
learning culture and job performance. In other words, the higher level of self-direction in learning people
have, the stronger effect was found on the relationship between both levels of learning culture and job
performance.
