Benefits of Cultural Diversity
- Compassion: Communication and understanding of differences leads to increased compassion instead of judgment.
- Innovation: Varied perspectives and lens of looking at the world lend to innovative thinking.
- Productivity: People who come together and bring their own style of working together tend to support a more productive team.
- New Opportunities: The diversity opens the door to new opportunities and the blending of ideas which would otherwise have been homogeneous.
- Problem-Solving: Challenges are layered, so having people with different backgrounds can lead to better problem-solving with richness of opinions.
