One of the primary benefits of having a diverse workforce is having a wealth of different experiences and beliefs to draw from. Talmage-Rostron (2023) states, "By embracing and valuing diversity, organizations and societies can thrive by leveraging the strengths and talents of a diverse workforce or community, ultimately leading to greater unity, collaboration, and collective growth" (para. 2). Talmage-Rostron goes on to list other benefits, but one that stuck out to me was the ability to retain top talent.
