Introduction: The Rise of ‘Quiet Quitting‘
The term “Quiet Quitting” is making waves in the workplace. But unlike its name suggests, it’s not about a stealthy resignation. Quiet quitting describes employees doing the bare minimum, fulfilling their job description without going above and beyond. It signifies a state of disengagement, a silent withdrawal of enthusiasm and extra effort.
Why ‘Quiet Quitting‘? Understanding the Root Causes
Several factors contribute to the rise of quiet quitting. The COVID-19 pandemic forced a reevaluation of priorities, putting work-life balance in the spotlight. Burnout, especially among millennials and Gen Z, is at an all-time high. Wage stagnation and limited growth opportunities further fuel feelings of being undervalued and unmotivated.
