According to Eugene Griessman's Diversity: Challenges and Opportunities, what does diversity mean?

Answer 1

A salient point, excerpt:
"... diversity is like fire. When controlled and stimulated, fire
can drive turbines to light cities and run factories. Out of control, it can destroy everything that it helped build." - B. Eugene Griessman, Diversity: Challenges & Opportunities.

The fire is a "controlled burn." As far as possible, all individuals would be allowed to present their views, provided that no one puts down another; puting down results in an uncontrollable fire, negative for the organisation.
