In this microlearning series, let’s uncover the hidden world of the “quiet quitters” and how YOU can transform them into passionate contributors. Did you know? The global cost of low engagement is a whopping $8.8 trillion annually. But here’s the good news: YOU can make a change, and the ball’s in your court!
🔍Spotting the Signs:
- Changes in behavior or attitude
- Reduced work performance or enthusiasm
- Seeming distant or disinterested
Tip: Keep a diary of observed changes and possible triggers. And don’t forget to consult with other colleagues for a 360° view.
💬 Communication is Key: Arrange one-on-one chats and ensure a safe space for open dialogue. Some golden questions to ask:
- “How do you feel about your current projects?”
- “Are there changes affecting your engagement?”
- “Do you feel challenged and recognized?”
👔 Tailor-made Solutions: Every employee is unique. Understand their needs and craft personalized strategies:
- Overloaded? Help them prioritize tasks.
- Seeking balance? Emphasize well-being and quality over hours.
🎯 Setting the Bar: Clearly define what “success” looks like in your team. Make sure there’s a transparent path to growth, and give them a chance to shine!
🥇 Recognize and Reward: Celebrate achievements! A shout-out, a thank-you note, or a simple gesture can make a world of difference.
🔄 The Loop of Improvement: After implementing changes, always follow up. Adjust strategies as needed, and let them know you’re in this together.
Remember: 70% of team engagement variance is on you. With observant eyes, open ears, and a heart for change, you can turn those quiet quitters into the stars of your team. 🌟
📢 Challenge of the Week: Set up one or two one-on-one meetings this week with team members you feel might need a boost. Let’s reignite that spark!
