Have a problem to solve? Ask someone who has never faced the challenge that you currently have. You’ll get a fresh perspective to open your mind to. There will be no bias from their similar, lived experiences. They have not had them.

Diversity of experiences, beliefs and values helps us to think and reconsider solutions to problems differently. If we would all believe the same things in the same routine manner, we would lack the creativity to adapt. We would foster no imagination and sustain a curiosity to change.

Surround yourself with and be open to people that are not just like you. Individuals that think differently and will genuinely relate their thoughts to create a better group and a better community that solves problems together. All benefit.

“Diversity drives innovation- when we limit who can contribute, we in turn limit what problems we can solve.” — Telle Whitney —
