We should be skeptical of doomsday commentary about worker burnout and the “great resignation”, but also keenly aware that things have changed, that worker engagement is on life support, and that fed up workers are costing the global economy a staggering $8.1 trillion a year. So, what the heck happened to work since the pandemic began? Turns out just 20% of global workers are engaged with their work, including 36% of workers in the U.S. followed by 11% in the U.K. and Western Europe.
