Abstract(s)

This chapter seeks to highlight the importance of positive leadership in combating the phenomenon of quiet quitting. This phenomenon is not new, but it has gone viral with the COVID-19 pandemic, being more ‘visible’ in the organizational context. Thus, the objective of this research is to identify the main advantages of positive leadership in mitigating the quiet quitting movement. The research methodology is qualitative and starts by conceptualizing and identifying the main causes and consequences of the quiet quitting movement. Afterwards, the advantages of positive leadership are identified and, finally, this leadership style is systematized in relation to happiness and well-being at work. This research thus integrates the positive leadership approach with practices to improve employee engagement and orga nizational culture, highlighting the importance of human resource management practices to attract, integrate and manage talent in companies.
