During World Economic Forum Week 2026 in Davos, Dustin Plantholt was presented with the Mother Teresa Award, an honor rooted in the values of service, humility, and care for others—especially when recognition is not the goal.
The award was presented by Bekim Sali, First Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of North Macedonia. Receiving the distinction in Davos, a place often associated with global power and policy, underscored the quiet contrast at the heart of Mother Teresa’s legacy: leadership measured not by visibility, but by compassion.
From Dustin:
“Being presented with the Mother Teresa Award during Davos WEF 2026 is something I take to heart. Her life set a standard rooted in service, humility, and care for others, especially when no one is watching.
Thank you to Bekim Sali, First Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of North Macedonia, for the honor and the respect behind it. I receive this with gratitude and a strong sense of responsibility to keep doing the work that matters.”
