Kündigung: „Ich langweile mich zu Tode in meinem Job“ – Die Gefahr der inneren Kündigung

In Berlin, Johanna Kohler faces a daunting problem: she is bored to death at her job. As a 36-year-old marketing manager, each morning, she wakes up and checks her computer, hoping for any messages, but seldom receives any. Instead, she finds her own ways to stay occupied. This situation takes a toll on Kohler, who, despite her usual dedication, feels the need to hide her name due to fear of negative consequences.

She is used to immersing herself in work, but something has changed. Since the beginning of the year, Kohler has been actively searching for a new job. Despite her strong references and extensive experience, she is struggling to find a suitable position. Moreover, without having another job lined up, resigning becomes financially unfeasible for her.

Thus, she remains at her current employer, despite growing dissatisfaction and decreasing motivation. Kohler's dilemma is shared by an increasing number of employees. The implications for businesses, the impact on employees, and how those looking to change can proceed are explored in detail.
