'Many people are waking up to the fact that our work is not all there is to us—that truly good and fulfilling lives are marked by balance.' Here's why that matters.
suggest that at least half of the U.S. workforce identify as quiet quitters. A trending catchphrase, it has clearly hit a nerve, appealing both to exhausted workers and to worried CEOs, who see the phenomenon as a root cause of many of their problems. However, the concept is a dangerous misnomer. And because the notion of quiet quitting is so misleading, what is really going on in the world of work has largely remained unnoticed.coach.
Yet, contrary to what the name suggests, quiet quitting doesn’t refer to people actually or secretly quitting their jobs. And neither does it refer to people stopping to do their jobs while they are physically present at work. Instead, it denotes a reduction in the amount of effort we put into our work. Even more specifically, it means that people simply do what is specified in their job description, but stop taking on what is above and beyond.
Consider these examples of two workers who identify as quiet quitters and who have been interviewed by. They do in no ways sound like Big Lebowski types, Bartlebies, or fervent union activists, but simply like normal people who continue to do their jobs but have put up some healthy boundaries to protect their work–life balance. Administrative assistant Christy G explains: “I do not interact with anything from work before 7:00 or after 4:30, which is the time my office is open.
Department manager Sara M. reports: “I now leave my office at the end of the day not thinking about what I need to work on when I go home at night. I set boundaries for checking my emails and reaching out to co-workers during non-office hours.
Employers see quiet quitting as a manifestation of worker dissatisfaction, burnout, and lack of engagement. In China, a similar phenomenon became known as"flat," and the new catchphrase is also often discussed in conjunction with the Great Resignation. But all of that, too, is misleading. Quiet quitting should simply be called"working normally" because this is what it is.
