The Silent Shift: ‘Quiet Quitting‘ Takes Center Stage
The workplace is buzzing, but not with the usual pre-pandemic fervor. A new term has taken root, whispering through cubicles and virtual meetings: “quiet quitting.” But what does it really mean, and is it the answer to our collective yearning for work-life balance?
Decoding the Buzzword: What is ‘Quiet Quitting‘?
Contrary to its name, ‘quiet quitting‘ isn’t about actually leaving your job. Instead, it’s a subtle shift in mindset, a withdrawal from the hustle culture that glorifies going above and beyond.
