Is Employee Engagement Broken—Or Just Evolving?

Camelia Loh, Founder & CEO, Kabel

Is Employee Engagement Broken—Or Just Evolving?

Camelia Loh, Founder & CEO of Kabel, joins us to talk about the growing disconnect in the workplace, what “quiet quitting” is really telling us, and why traditional engagement strategies are no longer enough. From the role of empathetic leadership to what Millennials and Gen Z truly want at work, we explore what’s changed, what still matters, and how companies can rebuild trust and connection in a way that actually sticks. Camelia also shares how Kabel has reimagined work culture to engage young talent, and what she’s learned about the real meaning of employer branding—beyond the perks and buzzwords.
