The Performance Cost of Disconnection at Work
When employees feel safe to challenge ideas, contribute fully, and take ownership, performance rises across the organization. Yet disengagement remains costly.
Gallup reports higher absenteeism. EY found over 40% of employees feel mentally and physically isolated at work.
Disconnection impacts the bottom line:
• 18% lower productivity
• 15% lower profitability
• 40% report feeling isolated at work
Belonging isn’t soft.
It’s operational.
It’s measurable.
And when done right, it becomes a strategic lever for culture, trust, and sustainable performance.
