    Much of the discussion around sustainability has focused only on the environmental aspect. In this conference we aim to extend the discussion to include other aspects of sustainability, especially in the context of future working life, its organizing, managing and leadership. Working life is facing significant social, technological, cultural, economic and environmental changes. We want to explore the meaning of these changes and their challenges to private and other organizations, their management and leadership.

    We invite contributions from academics, policymakers and practitioners. We are interested in contributions on topics which are on the rise in changing working life. The range of possible topics includes, but is not limited to, the following themes from the perspective of working life:

    ·         Workforce diversity, intersectionality, inclusion and equality

    ·         24/7 demands, work-life/family integration, work wellbeing and quality of life

    ·         Development of human and social capital

    ·         Organizational change, renewal and culture

    ·         Labor and human rights concerns

    ·         Responsibility/ethics in leadership and HRM

    ·         Good governance

    ·         Human and social aspects of accounting

    ·         Social/organizational innovation and social enterprise

    ·         Ethical challenges of digitalization/social media

    ·         Stakeholder engagement and value creation

    ·         (E-)learning/teaching and business ethics

    ·         Climate change and other environmental challenges

    Special tracks:

    ·         Volkswagen: DAS PROBLEM - Ethics and CSR challenges
