In the learning organization concept the learning is realized on organizational level, employees work together, and the goal of the organization is same as the goal of all employees. The learning organization concept has become the subject of many studies over the years. The tool mostly used for measuring the learning organization is the Dimensions of Learning Organization Questionnaire (DLOQ). The DLOQ was translated and used in more than 14 languages during past years. However, in the Czech Republic, only one study with DLOQ in IT sector was conducted in 2018. To determine the further direction of studies in the Czech Republic, the comparison of carried out studies is needed. The research study of 30 studies with DLOQ was conducted. It was found, that the three most popular sectors are: education sector, banking and healthcare. With regard to the current situation in the Czech Republic is recommended to provide next study at high schools (private and public) and to include both students and professors into the study.
