Creating new products and services with our team at Dolan Foods is like making your favourite meatloaf with Grandma’s secret recipe. Your ingredients may be different, but they all work amazingly well together somehow and produce outstanding results.
Working in the food industry and with meats in particular, you’re always looking for the next great idea. Innovation comes from across the company, so we never stop encouraging our team to imagine. It’s a place where we can all share and listen to each others’ ideas, with open lines of communication.
Creativity takes guts. It means speaking up and saying what you’d like to do differently. In the words of the famous artist Henri Matisse, “Creativity takes courage.”
Bringing in diverse perspectives helps us problem-solve and makes us more efficient. Diversity creates a more enjoyable workplace too. After all, who wants to be around everyone who thinks the same way?
“Our team is really passionate about what we do,” says Claudio Stellato, Sales Manager. “We’re always trying new things together. And we’re able to move fast to make it happen.”
We collaborate by bringing different teams together, like sales working with product development, or logistics working with operations. This develops trust across the company, where all ideas are good ones. We get to learn more about each other and the jobs we all do, which we think elevates our understanding of how we can work better together.
At Dolan Foods, we know that the best teams don’t just happen, and neither does creativity. It’s about cultivating a space where team members want to get up and go to work every day.
