"America has forged this success while utilizing, in large part, only half of the country’s talent. For most of our history, women—whatever their abilities—have been relegated to the sidelines. Only in recent years have we begun to correct that problem." —Warren Buffett The Warren Buffett quote illustrates the concept that a company willing to diversify draws from a larger talent pool and which leads to hiring people with diverse skills sets. This is an example of what positive benefit of diversity?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Drawing talent from a larger and more diverse pool allows a business to attract and retain the best talent available

Explanation:

Around half of the world's population are women, and that applies to all countries. Buffet believes that American businesses have overlooked women's talent and therefore have missed half of America's talent.

It makes mathematical sense. If you are given the opportunity to choose 5 team members from a pool of 20 people, you will have double the chance of selecting a better team than if your pool were only 10 people.

Besides that mathematical fact, women also have different views than men over most issues, and they are also half of the nation's customers. So it is possible that during the last 200 years, businesses have been addressing half of their customers the wrong way.
