Those are excellent ways to help staff re-engage. I also think that accountability and follow through are also really critical to preventing quiet quitting. If I am doing my job well and being a team player, and my coworker is doing the bare minimum and is constantly making preventable mistakes, requiring their teammates to overcompensate for them, management needs follow up and hold them accountable. If they fail to do this, the good, hardworking employees will see this and, in time, will stop putting as much effort in or caring as much.
I agree! Accountability is essential for good management and preventing these negative trends. Thanks, Denise!
I completely agree, Denise. Holding all team members accountable is crucial to maintaining good employee morale. Many leaders are not comfortable with uncomfortable conversations, but sometimes they are necessary. It’s a delicate balance.
I love this opening question, as it reshapes the idea of Quiet Quitting, “How can we get people to stop… feeling the need to disengage from work?” . Quiet Quitting should be renamed to Toxic Management, it points to the true root of the problem. Yes, there are lazy employees, but these employees are not Quiet Quitting, they have always been lazy. Thank you for this post, Remuneration is important but so are healthy working relationships.
