Description

Odds are you’ve discussed quiet quitting with your colleagues, your friends, your barista, your aunt Barbara… you get the idea. Super-hyped-up conversations about quiet quitting are everywhere these days—but what’s the noise really about? What’s the alleged trend mean or point toward? And if we double-click on quiet quitting, what can we learn about the OS of our workplaces? In this episode, Rodney and Aaron turn up the volume on this phenomenon and talk about:

What these conversations tell us about our ways of working and what needs to change

How to start caring more about outputs and commitments and less about timesheets

Why the common belief that “good performance = beating expectations” is trash

How a lack of clarity stokes both the quiet quitting and quit firing fires

Why we need better workflows around asking workers what they really need
