Terry Talks
Quiet Quitting
'Quiet Quitting' is the latest workplace trend affecting employees worldwide. It used to go by many different names, such as disengagement or discretionary effort. Quiet quitting means that the little extra effort given by employees is eliminated; employees are just doing their job and going home. This trend has huge implications for workforce productivity, and low employee engagement is estimated to cost $8 trillion globally annually! A record number of employees in 2022 report feeling emotionally detached from work. The issue lies in how employees are managed or coached and unhealthy culture. Leadership, or a lack thereof, is largely responsible for this. So, leadership development needs commitment and investment. Leaders build a great culture, which can counter quiet quitting and employee disengagement.
Good Career Transition Support
This week's Terry Talk covers a great article by Vice entitled 'Business is Booming for Layoff Specialists.' According to Vice, layoffs overwhelm tech sectors, and HR departments are left 'scrambling.' Mass layoffs are new to many companies, and they may need help. Career transition forms are meant to protect everyone's brand - the company brand, the management's brand, and the individual's brand. Large layoffs have been handled poorly by some large companies, thus affecting their brand. Ahria Consulting's career transition specialists can help organizations succeed in laying off employees to protect the brand and individual.
