Unseen. Unheard. Unappreciated.

It’s the feeling behind the sighs, the silence, and the sudden sick days. And according to research, it’s one of the top reasons employees leave.

In this replay episode of Relationships at Work, host Russel Lolacher explores the all-too-common experience of feeling undervalued at work—and the leadership blind spots that let it happen. Backed by Gallup and Workhuman data, he shares the nine warning signs that your employees may not feel seen or supported, from subtle disengagement to visible burnout.

You’ll learn:

What behaviours signal an employee feels disconnected or dismissed
Why “quiet quitting” might be more about leadership than laziness
How under-recognition is a silent killer of retention and trust
What actions leaders can take to reestablish connection and care

This episode is a call to stop missing what’s right in front of us—and start leading with intention before it's too late.
