MBA1277 Does Your Business Have a Diversity Problem? + Free Ride Friday!
from The $100 MBA Show · host Omar Zenhom
It’s time to put aside politics, and focus on business. Diversity matters. Monoculture is a weakness. Diversity is just as important for your business goals as it is for anyone’s social goals. Today, we’ll explain why a team that looks, acts, and thinks the same has trouble innovating. We’ll also bust one of the ugliest, most backward myths in business: that prioritizing diversity means not hiring “the best” candidate for the job. We’ll explain what you’re missing when you only hire people like yourself, and how to integrate diversity into your hiring metrics in a way that puts success first. Diversity doesn’t just happen — it’s something smart entrepreneurs cultivate intentionally. Learn how: Click Play!
