Coming out of the Covid-19 pandemic, young workers were embracing "quiet quitting," or the act of doing your work, but not going above and beyond.
Unlike millennials, Gen Z didn't want to "lean in."
The idea of quiet quitting isn't all-together unhelpful, though, Cal Newport, author of "Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout" told Dan Harris on a recent episode of the podcast "Ten Percent Happier."
"Quiet quitting seasonally — that you might get away with," Newport says.
"People might not notice in July you weren't really locked in because in August you're back into it again."
