Our Culture
The Danco Group celebrates a growth mindset which means our organization runs on a “promise-based” culture. Meaning that each person holds a promise rather than a traditional job description. When a person holds a promise, they offer to be responsible for doing whatever it takes to produce certain agreed-upon results, while also agreeing to operate within certain frameworks such as codes, laws, budgets, etc. They promise to fulfill a certain what but are not promising how – allowing them the opportunity to be entrepreneurial in their role and essentially to design their own success within their role. A promise-based culture allows a sense of ownership making individuals far more valuable team members, allowing them to be more creative, and often helping them identify problems or opportunities more easily because their scope of work and range of vision is much larger than a traditional job description or list of responsibilities. This culture of accountability ensures that successes are recognized and encourages employee engagement and collaboration.
