Only 23% of employees are engaged—and that’s the highest it’s ever been.

Let that sink in.

In this episode of the Future-Ready Leader Podcast, Afsheen Ismail-Wey (CEO of The Phoenix Coaching Co.) dives into one of the most quietly devastating—and surprisingly hopeful—trends in leadership today.

We explore:

🔸 Why the real engagement crisis is a leadership crisis

🔸 The hidden cost of low engagement ($8.9 trillion, to be exact)
🔸 What high-engagement organizations are doing differently
🔸 The critical leadership shifts needed in 2025 and beyond

This is more than an episode—it’s a call to lead with intention.

👉 If you’re building a culture people want to be part of, start here.

Let’s move from performative to powerful leadership.
