Just because everyone is showing up to work doesn’t mean they are happy and productive. A CIO article from last week discusses some of the findings from the CEB’s Global Talent Monitor report, and coins this new-to-us phrase, “quitting in their seats.”. It’s as bad as it sounds.

It’s not new information that women earn just 79 cents for every dollar that a man earns or that only 14% of the S&P 500’s top executives are women. When considering ethnicity in addition to gender, the imbalance gets worse. Compared to the earnings of Caucasian men, African American women net 59% and Latin American women bring home just 54%. With today’s focus on diversity and inclusion, many HR pros are all too familiar with this mounting problem—but few understand how to correct it.
