Page 11 @crismr Diverse Teams are Smarter In a nutshell, enriching your employee pool with representatives of different genders, races, and nationalities is key for boosting your company’s joint intellectual potential. Creating a more diverse workplace will help to keep your team members’ biases in check and make them question their assumptions.

13. Page 13 @crismr What’s it all about Always be open and eager to learn. The world is changing, especially in technology, and we will always need to keep up. In addition to technology, seek to learn and understand from those who are different from you. DevOps is, at its heart, a cultural movement, wherein groups with traditionally very different goals come together to learn from one another with empathy. We do better when we hear from those with diverse backgrounds and viewpoints and voices. Remember: we are building tech for the world. The world is made up of many people with varied experiences.
