In this episode of the Healthy Church Staff Podcast, host Todd Rhoades discusses the concept of 'quiet quitting' — when staff members disengage subtly from their roles without direct communication. It emphasizes the importance of spotting subtle signs of disengagement and suggests strategies for re-engaging such staff before they leave the organization. Todd provides insights into maintaining healthy staff dynamics by fostering open communication, addressing unmet needs, and reconnecting staff with the church's mission.• Quiet quitting is often marked by subtle signs of disengagement.• Disengaged staff usually stay out of the spotlight and avoid causing conflicts.• Common signs include lack of contribution, minimal energy, and less ownership.• Disengagement may result from misalignment with mission, burnout, or feeling undervalued.• Engagement strategies: deep one-on-one conversations, asking meaningful questions, listening actively.• Reconnecting staff to spiritual purpose and the organization's mission is key.• Prevention through proactive monitoring of staff well-being is crucial.
