In this episode of The Retrospective, Peter and Jeremy discuss ‘quiet quitting’ in the workplace, a situation in which employees lose motivation and only do the minimum required. They discuss how to spot the signs and the reasons behind them, such as changes in company culture or personal struggles. The conversation also covers how managers can help motivate their team and maintain a positive environment, using strategies like giving feedback and recognising good work.
