The New Kind of Ghosting: Present But Absent

Not every ghost disappears. Some just fade — slowly, quietly, until their presence is more of a burden than a benefit. In this episode, we’re talking about the “barely there” employee: the one who checks in but never steps up, leaves clients hanging, and quietly shifts the weight onto everyone else’s shoulders.

If you’ve noticed someone on your team pulling back without technically crossing any lines, this episode is for you. We’ll talk about how to spot it, what to say, how to document it, and most importantly — how to lead through it with clarity and confidence.
