    research on individual learning as it relates to the organizational
    context. We invite academic papers that investigate learning within
    organizations. Possible topics for this sub-theme include (but are not
    restricted to):

    * The relation between organizational change efforts and learning among
    employees and decision makers;

    * The benefits of training for trainees as well as co-workers

    * The influence of emotions on individual learning;

    * Formal training as a trigger of informal learning;

    * The role of trust in interpersonal learning;

    * The contribution of leadership to learning;

    * Organizational culture as a context for workplace learning;
