Dare to Overcome (DTO) is the premier global event for business leaders to share and celebrate best practices, virtues, and values in being allies of differing communities, faiths and cultures in workplaces and marketplaces, thereby building peace.
Previously held in Rio de Janeiro, Seoul, Tokyo, Washington DC, and New Delhi, India, the 2026 edition will be held in London with the theme
The Economics of Kindness.
DTO’s inaugural Economics of Kindness Award will go to one or more business leaders who have successfully led an organisation exhibiting "kindness" as defined as:
- Ensuring everyone has a voice
- Being honest
- Saying the hard truths
- Tackling the tough challenges head on
Such organisations recognize that:
- Kindness is not just a 'nice to have' -- it is now a leadership expectation
- Kind leadership drives performance, employee engagement and, therefore, innovation
- Kindness strengthens business resilience, creating a 'bank' of good will
- Kindness is critical in customer service
- Kindness correlates with business growth, and growth is a proxy for performance
The Economics of Kindness is a concept developed and executed at
Baringa and shared with the scores of their organisational clients worldwide.
