Why People Go Silent and Why Motivation Is Never Enough

If motivation were the problem, most people would not go quiet. They would leave.
Yet millions do not. They stay, they show up and they do what is required, while slowly withdrawing their ideas, energy and honesty. According to Gallup, 62 percent of people globally are not engaged at work and a further 15 percent are actively disengaged. The defining feature is not absence, but silence. People are present, but no longer fully participating.
