This study examines the influence of demographic variations on organizational learning, innovation, and performance within Indian educational institutions, addressing a significant gap in empirical research in this area. It explores how age, gender, educational background, and professional experience among faculty members affect the adaptability, growth, and innovation of these organizations. Utilizing data from 342 academic employees across eight universities in Jammu & Kashmir, India, the research employs independent sample t-tests and ANOVA to analyze the impact of these demographic factors. The findings reveal significant differences in perceptions of organizational learning, innovation, and performance based on gender, with males generally reporting higher scores. Age differences indicated older individuals had more positive perceptions of organizational learning, while experience levels significantly influenced perceptions of organizational learning and performance, but not innovation. These results underscore the multifaceted effects of demographic diversity on educational institutions' operational dynamics and outcomes. The study's implications for policy and practice suggest that a strategic focus on diversity management can enhance organizational learning, drive innovation, and improve performance. It calls for further research into the nuanced relationships between demographic variables and organizational outcomes across different cultural contexts and sectors. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the potential of demographic diversity as a lever for organizational excellence in the context of Indian higher education.
