READING BETWEEN THE LINES: Recognizing Stalled Growth Before it Turns Into Disengagement

What looks like disengagement is often stalled growth. Many employees who disengage or leave are not seeking a different paycheck; they are seeking challenge, development, and forward movement. When growth slows, engagement often follows.

Disengagement rarely happens all at once. It appears in subtle shifts, from initiative to compliance, from curiosity to routine, and from energy to obligation. These signals are easy to miss until performance declines or turnover occurs.

Connie Fiscus will equip leaders with practical tools to recognize early indicators of stalled growth, create an environment where employees feel safe to speak openly, and engage in meaningful conversations that uncover development needs. Leaders will also learn how to reintroduce challenge through targeted development strategies that support both performance and retention.

Delivered through an energetic and interactive approach, this session blends fun storytelling with real-life experience, creating an engaging environment where leaders can connect the concepts to their own teams and immediately apply what they learn.
