Keywords: Innovative Green Performance, Communication Learning, Capacity

Abstract

This research studies the effect of absorption capacity on green performance with the moderating role of communication learning. Data were collected through a questionnaire. The statistical population of the research is the employees of Toosab Company. The sample size was estimated to be 108. To test the hypotheses, structural equation modeling and PLS and spss software were used. In this communication learning study, the role of the main independent variable, the innovative role of green, the role of the main dependent variable and communication learning played the role of modulatory variable. Communication learning includes three dimensions of knowledge sharing, knowledge sharing and knowledge integration, and absorption capacity is considered with two dimensions: potential and real. The results of assumptions showed that absorption capacity has a significant effect on greenhouse effect. Also, results have shown that communication learning has a significant positive effect on green performance and communication learning has a significant moderating effect on the relationship between absorption capacity and inefficient green performance.
