What truly drives the world’s most successful companies?
At a time when corporate inclusion efforts face new challenges, a bold new study is set to reshape the conversation—revealing a powerful and often overlooked force at the heart of corporate values: faith and belief.

This landmark research, spanning 400 of the most successful companies across the U.S., Europe, Southeast Asia, and China, uncovers a striking global convergence around a single core value—integrity—and traces its roots to the ethical and spiritual traditions that shape billions of lives.

From boardrooms to breakrooms, this study explores how employees’ deepest convictions—whether grounded in Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Sikhism, Humanism, or other traditions—are quietly fueling cultures of trust, excellence, and purpose.

Why does integrity matter so universally?
How do faith and belief identities shape corporate success?
And what happens when workplaces embrace—not suppress—these identities?

Join us at Dare to Overcome 2026 for the exclusive unveiling of this transformative research. Discover how faith-and-belief friendly workplaces are not just more inclusive—they’re more resilient, innovative, and ethically grounded.

This is more than a report. It’s a call to action.

Be there when the future of values-driven business is revealed. May 20-21, 2026.
