On today’s episode of the RecruitingDaily Podcast, William Tincup talks to James Micklethwait, Vice President of Kahoot! at work, about their newly discovered phenomenon named "quiet constraint," and how it is actually the new workplace villain.

You’ve likely heard of Kahoot! for their fun quizzes and yet, these days the platform has become much more. Kahoot! at work can be used for trainings, presentations, meeting and events to boost employee engagement.

What is “quiet constraint?”

In a recent study for the company’s annual Workplace Culture Report, what was expected was a high level of employee disengagement. (Especially with all the recent talk of quiet quitting.)

Rather, what was uncovered is what they named “Quiet Constraint,” where over half of employees overall reported they actually hold back knowledge that they believe others would benefit from--rather than sharing with their peers.

Why would they do this? Tune in to learn more.
