Why Diversity Matters

Diversity in the workplace is more important to business success than ever. The buzz around diversity is growing. But building diverse organisations that make better, bolder decisions and are more competitive in the global economy isn’t just a matter of hiring employees from different backgrounds.

As I received my diploma and became an INSEAD alumnus, I tried to think what is that one takeaway from this year?
