Last year’s dominant work trend was quiet quitting — the idea that workers are over going above and beyond their required duties. But with the changing economic climate and many organizations looking to avoid adding headcount while increasing capabilities, 2023 has seen the rise of quiet hiring.
So what is quiet hiring exactly, and is it a new idea at all? Here to answer these questions and more is Emily Rose McRae, a Senior Director of Research in our HR practice. In this session, which originally aired on Gartner’s LinkedIn channel, Emily explains how we’ve seen quiet hiring manifest before, how it can benefit organizations and how, contrary to popular belief, it can be a win for employees, too.
