Doug Wing began working at Little Giant building ladders when he was just 10 years old. Growing up with Hal as a father gave Doug a foundation of faith, persistence, service and a love of all things fast, of course. He used that foundation to help build the brand and lead the sales team at Little Giant. He has more than 40 years of experience in manufacturing, operations, sales, sales leadership, and executive management. Today, Doug carries on the legacy of Hal in his service to his church, his charity work, and in his business ventures.
He is the author of Giant Success a book detailing how Hal Wing achieved worldwide acclaim, taking The Little Giant Ladder Company from his garage to the top of an already well-established category with his vision, innovation, commitment to quality, integrity, work ethic, and gumption.
