QUIT CHECKING THE BOX

Businesses of every size, shape and purpose are experiencing some of the

greatest challenges in history today. Even prior to the global pandemic,

companies and their employees were starting to feel the impact of the

challenges that are now coming to light in every industry. Companies have felt

the blow delivered by the “great resignation” once employees were told they

could return to work, and a massive number of employees didn’t return. And

now, businesses are experiencing what we referred to in our previous special

report, “quiet quitting,” a trend where their employees are doing the bare

minimum at work. This is very likely a response to burnout and stress and a

way for employees to regain balance in their lives. But there is also something

else that is a contributing factor to the stress, the burnout and the

disengagement employees feel.
