Overview: Imagine, for a minute, a workplace where everyone is the same. All of the workers are of the same ethnicity, gender, educational background, and socioeconomic standing. With a team full of people essentially cut from the same cloth, where do the new ideas come from? How will the company ever be able to see things from a different point of videw?
