"I think there are too many occasions where those from underprivileged communities aren't granted the same opportunities as others. In my opinion, everyone should be offered equal opportunity based on their talents and merits, above all else. More so, the more diverse a team is, bridging communities, the more that team has to offer in forms of alternative perspectives and innovation."

"A diverse team widens the perspective of the individual. If everyone on the team is the same, from the same background, then everyone there is singing to the choir. Their comfort zone is limited and sheltered, and their audience is small. The wider the comfort zone, the greater the perspective and the wider the audience. Only this will give your team a competitive edge. But at the center of that is the team, depending on how well every member works together."
