In his book, The Diversity Bonus, University of Michigan professor and social scientist Scott Page looks at groups that represent cognitive diversity—differences in how we reason, interpret and solve problems. Different ways of thinking, which can be affected by identification with a particular group (gender, race, socioeconomic status, to name a few), produces something extra – a bonus. When people with varying “tools” for solving complicated tasks come together and work inclusively to find solutions, the results are powerful. Case in point: The million-dollar Netflix algorithm challenge. When unrelated teams from different professions around the globe joined forces, they beat the company’s existing program for predicting users’ movie ratings based on previous ones (e.g., if you rated Spaceballs five stars, would you do the same for Airplane! or Star Wars?). Across fields, Page shows how errors in group predictions and complex problem solving are mitigated by the diversity of the group doing the work.
