Everyone has worked with a disengaged employee or co-worker at one time or another. They’re can actually be quite easy to spot once you chat with them for a few minutes – they just don’t care!
They don’t care about whether the company succeeds or fails, have little or no interest in their position or the people around them and instead of helping your business grow, they’re most likely just dragging it down.
Disengaged employees don’t understand just how much of a role the culture of a business plays into its success. Complaining, gossiping and lying are just a few of the worst traits of disengaged employees… but there are lots more!
