The Whispers of “Quiet Quitting“: A New Work Trend Emerges
The workplace is buzzing, but not with the usual Monday morning coffee chatter. This time, it’s the murmur of “quiet quitting” that’s captured everyone’s attention. Is it a silent protest, a slow fade into career oblivion, or simply a healthy recalibration of work-life boundaries? The answer, as with most things, is far from black and white.
From TikTok to the Boardroom: Understanding the Quiet Quitting Trend
The term “quiet quitting,” despite its name, erupted loudly on social media, particularly TikTok.

Think strictly adhering to your 9-to-5, skipping optional meetings, and politely declining projects outside your job description.
