March 2023 - PMI Chapter Xchange - The Silent Trends Quiet Quitting, hiring and thriving

Last year's end saw Quiet Quitting's emergence, a trend where employees put in a minimal amount of effort to get through the workday. Now, entering the third month of 2023, a new buzzword has entered the workplace — Quiet hiring. According to Gartner, quiet hiring is one of the nine workplace trends of 2023. Quiet hiring is the practice of an organization acquiring new skills without hiring new full-time employees. Amidst this chaos of becoming quitters in silence, another concept surfaced – Quiet thriving- that involves finding ways, steps, and measures to engage with work. How can we, as project managers, avoid the quiet quitting of our teams? Can quiet hiring be beneficial for our teams? Do project managers play a role in bringing in the shift from quiet hiring to quiet thriving?
