How to rethink leadership to energize disengaged employees
The workplace is changing faster than most leaders can keep up with. We're seeing changing expectations around work-life balance, the rise of burnout, and the prevalence of economic pressures leading to the rise of generative AI. This leaves little time to adapt, let alone rethink how we engage and inspire our teams. This shift has impacted the workforce. According to the latest Glassdoor Worklife Trends 2025 Report, 65% of employees feel stuck in their current jobs. But when it comes to managing and motivating people, some things never change. Employees want to feel valued, supported, and integral to something bigger. Trust, human connection, and purpose remain key to any company's success, no matter how fast technology evolves or how much the workplace shifts. Fostering these values requires more from management than just hiring the best people. It's about creating an environment where workers thrive. This means they take ownership, contribute ideas, and collaborate. While strong leadership is vital for setting the company's vision and strategy, real energy and innovation emerge when those ideas come from the workforce. Employees who align with the company's broader goals drive innovation in ways that no algorithm or technology can replicate. Fostering a culture that explicitly values and empowers staff leads to creativity and allows companies to tap into the true potential of their workforce. This approach invites employees on every level to emerge as leaders and innovators. The great detachment from momentum We're witnessing a massive evolution in the workplace. When Amazon announced its return-to-office policy for 2025, the backlash was swift and unsurprising. We've all seen this coming. Employees have found new ways to create an impact that doesn't fit the traditional office-bound, 9-to-5 mold. Gen Z is poised to outnumber baby boomers. And the impact will go beyond their numbers—many of them have a different way of working and what they expect from the workplace compared to previous generations. They grew up during the pandemic when remote learning and hybrid environments became the norm. Gen Z employees are comfortable contributing in flexible, nontraditional ways —working in bursts of focus or sending deliverables at midnight. For them, the emphasis isn't on showing up to the office but on the impact of their efforts. However, a recent Gallup poll indicates an alarming trend of employee detachment, particularly among those under 35. This raises a critical question: Is your company still focused on activity? Are you measuring for actual impact? RTO mandates alone won't change the culture or drive performance. Real progress happens when we trust our employees to experiment, share, and make meaningful contributions. Empowering staff from the bottom up means prioritizing outcomes that create value and drive our businesses forward. Businesses can no longer rely on traditional productivity. Continuing to think in outdated ways will not position companies to keep pace with competitors with a workforce that is more flexible, innovative, and thriving. As leaders, we must create space for impact and let go of outdated performance metrics that hold us back. Listen to your experts Leaders have the power to set the tone. Consider asking yourself,what do you need to learn or unlearn, and who can teach you this? Remember that it's not your job to know everything. That's what experts are for. Lean on them, trust them, and empower them. Elevate viewpoints from employees at all levels and champion their wisdom. Nurture a learning environment where you welcome candid conversations, and employees can exchange ideas without fear of judgment, blame, or backlash. Promote teamwork and collaboration. This requires removing obstacles and providing opportunities for talent that break down organizational silos and give life to new ideas. Create a collective spark Collaboration fuels creativity and impact. Leaders can foster this by creating space for employees to share ideas through brainstorms or reverse mentoring programs. They also need to find ways to empower employees to tackle challenges to encourage trust, innovation, and fresh thinking. These moments of connection and cocreation spark momentum that drives meaningful engagement and impact. The questions you ask shape the culture you create. Ask yourself, What steps can you take to empower leaders and employees to foster a sense of community? Who speaks freely, and who remains silent? Who receives credit, and who gets overlooked? Which employees get to create culture, rather than just to follow it? Create an environment where employees can influence processes. Encourage open conversations and employee input to simplify processes and make improvements that truly work for the team. This allows employees to sharpen their critical thinking, problem-solving, and leadership skills while contributing to meaningful outcomes. Create an empathetic culture Today's employees are overloaded with information, juggling constant communication, evolving expectations, and endless demands. Leading with empathy is essential to fostering an environment that truly supports employees. A high say/do ratio—where you consistently align your actions with promises—is critical to building trust and modeling the behavior you want to see. Your organization's culture is its most significant competitive edge. It can drive or hinder exceptional results, inspire a willingness to learn or a fear of failure, promote teams poised for problem-solving or riddled with distrust and toxicity, and encourage inclusivity or exclusion. Effective leadership isn't about perfection; it's about being present, intentional, and empathetic. When leaders intentionally tend to culture, they demonstrate to their employees what matters and is possible.

Fortnite on your phone is getting what's basically a DLSS upgrade
Jimmy Westenberg / Android Authority TL;DR Arm Accuracy Super Resolution (ASR) is supposed to enhance mobile GPU performance in a way similar to NVDIA DLSS or AMD FSR. Epic Games is adding Arm ASR support to Fortnite through an Unreal Engine 5 plug-in. ASR support will be landing for Fortnite on both Android and iOS 'soon.' Everybody's thinking about gaming this week, with Nintendo's Switch 2 set to finally drop on June 5. And while we're very excited to give it a spin, not everyone's got the cash lying around to drop $450 on a new console. Thankfully, many of us are already carrying around a very capable piece of mobile gaming hardware: our Android smartphone. And today we've got some very promising-sounding news for smartphone gamers. If you've at all messed around with PC gaming over the past five years or so, you're probably familiar with GPU-based image enhancement systems like NVIDIA's Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) or AMD's FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR). Rather than doing all the hard work of rendering games at increasing levels of detail, higher resolutions, and faster framerates, tools like these allow the GPUs to effectively predict or extrapolate some of that data, offering performance that feels on par with a higher-end GPU. Last summer, we were introduced to Arm's Accuracy Super Resolution (ASR), which is designed to pull off that very same sort of trick with your phone's mobile GPU. Especially with power and heat concerns such a priority on phones, a system like this felt like exactly what mobile gamers needed. Now Epic Games shares that it's adding Arm ASR support to Fortnite. Arm In theory, we can expect to see many of the same sort of benefits we would with DLSS or FSR on PCs. Epic says to expect improvements like higher-detail distant objects, reduced memory utilization, better texture performance, and smoother high-motion scenes. We checked out a demo video of ASR on Fortnite in action, and right now, we have to concede that its effects look a bit subtle. At least, by far the most prominent change seems to be some anti-aliasing-like smoothing, but there's clearly a lot more than that just going on here. That said, this is still technically a work in progress, and we may see Epic squeeze some extra performance out of ASR before the feature's ready to go live. The company intends to demo its work this week at Unreal Fest 2025, ahead of a release for both Android and iOS at some point in the near future. Got a tip? Talk to us!
