Strategy & values

Active actions, strong resources, and natural growth. Based on our business strategy, we highlight our professional knowledge through strategic focus areas, competent employees, and good management.

Natural growth

Our strategic focus is natural growth, where we aim to develop the company in a way that is in harmony with the climate, nature, and society.

With this strategy, we strive for a balance between investments in green solutions and innovation, while maintaining a focus on profitability, process optimization, and digitalization.

Strategic focus areas

Climate, biodiversity and circular bioeconomy

We are known as a professional beacon that takes responsibility for developing new and better solutions within, among other areas, circular bioeconomy, while also providing responsible, nature-based solutions—often with a focus on achieving CO2 binding or reductions.

With our three strategic focus areas, we make an extraordinary effort to reduce our climate footprint, increase biodiversity, and ensure sustainable recycling.

Engaged and proactive employees

The employees at Dalgas play the most significant role as we aim for natural growth in our strategy. Therefore, we focus on the continuous development of our employees to ensure skill enhancement and a high degree of well-being.

With our strategy, we seek to integrate our business across sectors so that we can offer holistic solutions to private companies, forest owners, organizations, and the public sector. This also places demands on the competencies of our employees, who are often specialists in specific areas. At Dalgas, we have five management principles that together ensure an attractive and safe workplace based on good leadership.

Our 5 management principles

You set clear effort goals—not just outcome goals. The goals are followed up through a clear structure for each individual (including via 1:1 meetings).

You manage to prioritize tasks—both for yourself and your employees. Active choices to refrain from certain tasks are just as important as those to take them on.

You contribute openly to the decision-making process (even in case of disagreement), but you are conversely loyal to decisions once they are made—‘then it is our decision.’

You express enthusiasm and joy. You acknowledge the good efforts and contribute with great energy—it MUST (also) be fun to go to work.

You manage to create development, motivation, and well-being based on the individual (your leadership is built on trust, openness, and respect).

You ensure that the framework makes sense for each individual, and it is therefore a crucial task for you to communicate a “why” to your employees.

You see opportunities and recognize the value of collaborating across teams – and you understand that in a good community, there is both “give and take.”

You have insight into the overall business at a high level, and you support your employees in getting to know each other and leveraging synergies across units.

You speak positively about your colleagues in the company – and share the good stories.

You are curious about your own strengths and weaknesses as a leader, practicing to become a conscious, competent leader.

You support a culture of training and feedback among your employees, where everyone works openly to become even more skilled.

You demonstrate consistency between words and actions.

How we work with nature-based solutions

We help realise ambitious ecosystem restoration projects, ensure compliance, and create visible results that strengthen your ESG profile and brand.

How we work with biodiversity

A digital and data-driven approach

At Dalgas, we create habitats where different species can thrive and contribute to a healthy and robust ecosystem. A diverse ecosystem that promotes both nature’s and people’s well-being.
 
We combine data, scientific knowledge, and practical experience to ensure that your biodiversity project has a positive and lasting impact on nature. Therefore, documentation and monitoring are central elements in our work. And you can use the data in your ESG reporting.
