Delaware Nation Industries & Delaware Nation Investments (DNI) is excited to announce that we are a 2026 Top Workplaces Culture Excellence winner in the category of Employee Development. DNI is also in the top 4% within our industry for employees seeing professional growth opportunities.
This award celebrates organizations who focus on developing their employees’ careers and enable them to grow professionally.
Top Workplaces awards are based on feedback from a research-backed employee engagement survey taken by Energage. DNI is honored to have received 100% feedback engagement by its employees.
In the anonymous survey, an employee stated, “the organization lives by the values it sets forth and that matters. The organization is “people-centric” and focused and values its talent.”
At DNI, our SHINES values serve as the cultural backbone of our organization. SHINES is an acronym for Selflessness, Humility, Integrity, Native Pride, Entrepreneurship, and Servanthood. These values align directly with DNI’s mission, guiding the team’s daily actions and strategic decisions. SHINES fosters a unified, purpose-driven workforce dedicated to excellence. SHINES reflects who we are and how we lead.
