Abstract

Research suggests that learning at work involves needless psychological distress among managers. It is proposed that management educators make it a priority to equip managers to adopt better learning practices. A picture of learning practices at work that promise to be “emotionally better” has been assembled and presented. There is more than a hint of reservation in the conclusion.
