Quiet quitting, bai lan, and anti-work are some of the trends currently demonstrating that employees are unhappy with poor workplace cultures that fail to keep them engaged. To get ahead of these problematic trends, HR leaders and organizations must build and cultivate cultures that prioritize belonging – making employees feel welcomed, known, included, supported, and connected.
Recent research from Achievers Workforce Institute found that employees with a strong sense of belonging are not only more than twice as likely to be resilient, but alsonearly three times more likely to say they are highly productive at work. Furthermore, the research found that engaging and retaining current employees aren’t the only benefits of centering belonging. Organizations can also build more attractive cultures for potential hires and attract talent that is a great fit, not just fast fits.
