  • Quiet Quitting And What To Do About It
    Aug 1 2024
    Jeannette discusses the concept of "quiet quitting," where employees disengage and perform only the minimum requirements for their job. She discusses the characteristics and causes of quiet quitting, citing statistics from a Gallup poll on employee engagement, and what we can do about it. KEY TAKEAWAYS Quiet quitting refers to employees who are only doing the bare minimum required for their job, lacking enthusiasm and engagement.Quiet quitting can lead to decreased productivity, poor team dynamics, and ultimately affect the overall success of the business.Factors such as burnout, lack of recognition, unclear expectations, and poor management can contribute to quiet quitting among employees.Implementing an engaging work culture, clarifying expectations, offering fair compensation, and creating an employee engagement strategy can help combat quiet quitting.Leaders should assess their own leadership style and make necessary adjustments to inspire and empower their teams effectively. BEST MOMENTS "Only 10% of employees feel engaged. So that therefore means that a staggering 90% of employees are therefore not engaged." "40% of employees in the UK were found to be experiencing daily stress, 27% reported feeling daily sadness, 20% reported feeling daily anger." "Gen Z's quiet quitting. 47% of Gen Z's said that they were coasting along in their career, and 40% said they're thriving." "Leadership is really around inspiring your teams, providing the vision, the focus, making those difficult investment choices, setting the strategy, and really empowering your teams to excel in whatever their roles are."

"Are you demonstrating collaboration in the way that you are conducting yourself at work? So, you know, very often all eyes are on the boss."
