  • People are still performing, but enthusiasm, trust, or discretionary effort is slipping.
  • Managers may be unintentionally adding load through unclear expectations, weak prioritization, poor feedback, or uneven opportunities.
  • Talented people are leaving, considering leaving, or becoming less engaged long before anyone notices.
