That may all be true, but I don’t know how it relates to “quiet quitting.” Bad managers aren’t a new thing. What IS a recent phenomenon is the collapse of trust and confidence among employees, business leaders and government officials in each other in this post-COVID world.
“Bad managers aren’t a new thing.”
True.
What is different today is bad managers are easier to notice—and their failures have bigger multiplier effects.
Example:
Bad managers will order everyone to work in the office post Covid and then wonder why they have both quiet quitters and real quitters.
