Latent turnover risk

Latent turnover risk names the gap between when an employee structurally disengages and when they leave. Most attrition reporting is a lagging indicator: the person has already gone. The latent-risk read attempts to surface the population that has stopped trying but has not yet stopped showing up.

Behaviourally, latent risk presents as: scope of work narrowing, fewer cross-functional initiatives, declining quality of internal feedback, longer wait times on decisions that used to move quickly, and the shift of high-context information from internal channels to external networks. Quantitatively, none of these are reliably captured in eNPS or pulse-survey composites.

Latent turnover risk is best read structurally: which Frustration Architectures are recurring, in which functions, and which clusters have not received a Three Doors decision. The recurring cluster without a decision is the leading indicator.
