95% employee retention rate: how to achieve it?

Practical lessons from Dreamix

Alive@Work Community Meeting
27 April, 4.00 - 5.15 pm, Zoom


 Every company and a leader wants to keep their best employees and be able to serve the business with people who care, contribute and are ready to walk the extra mile. But that appears to be an ongoing challenge for many companies. Despite the numerous engagement surveys, learning programs and exciting benefits, most companies struggle to retain their talent. 

So what is at the core of employee retention and why so many fail at it?
What do those companies with higher retention rates do differently to keep their people and create a sense of belonging? 

 Our April Alive@Work community gathering is dedicated to the topic of employee retention and how company culture and values contribute to building an organization to which people eagerly want to contribute and be part of.  

For this conversation we’ve invited Dreamix - a company well known for its culture and the emphasis they put on interweaving company values into everyday actions and decisions. 


During our community get-together, we will talk to Stoyan Mitov, Chief Business & People Officer at Dreamix to uncover how a fast growing and scaling IT company achieves such high retention.

Here are some of the topics we will discuss with Stoyan:

  • What are the key factors to make culture work?
  • How Dreamix came up with their values and the type of culture they want to nurture and grow?
  • What does it mean in practice to walk the talk related to company culture and values?
  • Why is it important to use the company values as a compass for decisions and actions and what are some real life examples?
  • What turns employees into company/culture ambassadors?
  • What is a Culture Map and how can anyone use it to visualize and map out culture/values driven activities and initiatives within the company?
