Most leaders struggle to keep top talent. Why? Because when employees don’t feel engaged or fulfilled, they often start looking for better opportunities elsewhere.
And while competitive pay matters, it’s not the only reason people stick around. What if the real key to retention was helping your team achieve their personal dreams?
In this episode, I’m talking with Dane Espegard, a leadership expert, Cutco-Vector entrepreneur, and the author of The Dream Machine. Dane has built one of Cutco’s most successful sales teams—not by micromanaging or driving harder, but by creating a company culture that makes people want to stay.
Dane’s Dream System flips traditional leadership on its head. Instead of just setting company goals, he helps his team identify and achieve their personal dreams, leading to higher engagement, loyalty, and performance. The results? A thriving team that’s deeply invested in the company’s success, because they know the company is committed to theirs.
