Our Culture

Our Winning Behaviors Help Us Accomplish More

The foundation of our unique culture is our unwavering commitment to our Core Values and Winning Behaviors. Together, they help guide our organization to accomplish more and achieve our highest potential while focusing on winning the right way. Every day our teams work hard to meet our customers’ needs, and every day, we are focused on fostering a collaborative environment for our team members and offering them the opportunity to have ownership in our Company’s success.

Committed to Getting Better Every Day

Our commitment to continuous improvement is at the center of everything we do. Not just what we do, but how we do it, every single day. We encourage and empower team members to make even the smallest improvement every day. When we do that, we genuinely get better every day, and our business partners get the most out of their Douglas Dynamics experience, helping us remain North America’s premier manufacturer of vehicle attachments and equipment.

Creating a culture of excellence is the key to our success, which is why we work hard to give our team members the tools and training to achieve more.
