For the sake of society diversity in the workplace is desirable. We want to provide an opportunity to success to everyone.  However, diversity in and of itself I don&#x27;t think is a &quot;strength&quot;  as in it will make company x better, provide more viewpoints, etc. The effect is likely neutral.<p>There are lots of successful companies in Asia, Europe, Africa, India, etc, who are super successful and aren&#x27;t diverse, racially, socioeconomically or by gender.  Now, it does become more important if your company globalizes, but you&#x27;ll probably hire a local and likely not locally diverse workforce to conduct operations in country.<p>So I think the focus should be diversity for its own sake, rather than trying to couch it as something else.
