Abstract
The COVID-19 outbreak has made digital transformation (DT) in the healthcare sector extremely vital. Hence, this study tested the effect of organizational learning culture (OLC) on strategic performance (SP) through the serial mediation of DT and organizational resilience (OR). The structural model was tested via the partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) using a sample of 264 Egyptian private hospitals. The findings revealed that OLC significantly affected DT, OR, and SP. However, the study's proposed model was not proved to be significant because DT and OR did not significantly affect SP. The findings contribute to DT and OR literature, first by introducing a new model of DT that includes OLC as an antecedent and OR as a consequence of DT, second by empirically proving that OR and SP as long-term strategic concepts should be used alternatively, and no one of them can act as an antecedent of the other.
