If you had to explain the value of a diverse work environment to a friend, what would be your main argument?

diverse workplaces and workforces are important because they bring apposing and different points of view so echo chambers of ideas aren't created. but this being enforced and artificially created isn't good because it may force individuals into positions they aren't capable of handling or suited for the job. forced diversity can also cause people to but heads in teams if the team doesn't work together efficiently. jobs should begiven to the most capable individual no matter what and that should be the only criteria, if it is done this way, in most cases diversity happens naturally.
