        abstract = {This case study explores the professional journey of Renee Thomas, a talented IT engineer whose early career was marked by enthusiasm, strong client relationships, and project success. However, workplace politics, lack of recognition, and strained team dynamics gradually eroded his motivation, leading him toward “quiet quitting” a phenomenon where employees disengage emotionally and psychologically while still formally remaining in the job. The case highlights the challenges of employee engagement, organizational culture, and leadership practices in preventing talent loss.},
