Quiet quitting may be a new term, but it’s not a new concept. According to our most recent guest, the pandemic has exacerbated an age-old problem: low employee engagement and productivity. Listen in as Brandon Laws sits down with Joe Galvin, Chief Research Officer of Vistage, and the two discuss how to set high expectations and boost productivity despite the challenges of the hybrid/remote workplace.
TAKEAWAYS
- Quiet quitting is the concept of employees meeting only the accepted standards and not trying to do more.
- Leaders must be intentional about engaging their teams, communicating clearly, and keeping standards high if they want to see higher productivity in a post-Covid workplace.
- The people who aren't working at home are the same people who weren’t working in the office; they just spend more energy creating the illusion of activity.
- Commuting is a waste of time, productivity, and emotional energy, and eliminating the commute frees people to get more done.
- Leaders need to recognize that it’s not about attendance and hours worked but about the timeliness and quality of the deliverables.
