I'm a fierce advocate for diversity. Always have been, always will be.

It never occurred to me that I was not going to challenge segregation.

While I started out with a vague understanding that diversity would be important, my own observations have led me to realize that achieving greater levels of diversity is in fact vital to our long-term success.

Diversity is about all of us, and about us having to figure out how to walk through this world together.

I haven't done years of diversity training, so sometimes I say things which are probably tactless, and I don't mean to, to be honest, I don't mean to do that.

I've always found diversity more interesting than specialisation. I like mixing it up across years, within days, within weeks - that's what stimulates me, gives me energy.

Diversity does not preclude political stability.

It's really important to share the idea that being different might feel like a problem at the time, but ultimately diversity is a strength.

Diversity really means becoming complete as human beings - all of us. We learn from each other. If you're missing on that stage, we learn less. We all need to be on that stage.

We need to reach that happy stage of our development when differences and diversity are not seen as sources of division and distrust, but of strength and inspiration.
