Feeling diminished, de-energised, unmotivated, and not recognised. He also explains why organisations often tolerate this behavior, how some people manage to shine upward while creating damage below, and why the real cost often stays invisible.During the conversation, he shares a free tool that allows organisations to observe engagement levels and understand how managers influence people’s desire to give their best.👉 Access the free Employee Appreciation Score (EAS) tool here:https://www.eazymirror.com/EAS?c=BBfriendThis episode gives words to experiences many professionals already live.And offers a concrete way to observe what is happening inside teams.
