Moving Diverse Teams UPWARD

Diverse organizations are more successful at recruiting and retaining talent; leading to an increase in job satisfaction and commitment to the company.

Diversity is key to better decision-making among teams leveraging a greater variety of perspectives.

This results in an increase of innovation, team performance, and revenue.

Studies link diversity to indicators of profitability, such as: gross and net margins, revenue, market value, investment performance, return on assets, equity, sales, and stock returns.
