Disengagement and quiet quitting: Fits if those staying have stopped caring.

Destructive and abusive leadership: Fits if one leader is driving people out.

Burnout: Fits if workload has been too high for too long.

Psychological safety: Fits if people can't raise problems before they decide to leave.

Change curve: Fits if it followed a big change that was never processed.
