The problem in business isn't that women are overlooked because they are women, it's that most people subconsciously look to employ a mini-me. It's not a gender issue, it's about diversification full stop. It's hard to change that mindset and it hits women particularly hard because men historically have always been the recruiters.

We can no longer let the threat of an early frost send a chill of fear throughout a large portion of our workforce. Diversification is the only answer.

Alan Autry

For investors who do want to speculate in high-yield bonds, one alternative may be a junk bond mutual fund, which can offer investors the relative safety of diversification.

Alex Berenson

The diversification of the people's demand could not be followed by the state apparatus.

Anatoly Chubais

As much as with increased exploration new gas reserves can be found, what must be obvious to all is that our oil and gas reserves are not renewable and they are diminishing, and to protect the generations to come, we must engage in nothing short of a radical shift in the diversification of the economy.

Anthony Carmona

In their pursuit of growth and diversification, African economies should consider transforming the discourse from a focus on industrialisation to a broader one centred on value addition in agriculture, manufacturing, and services.

Arancha Gonzalez

Growth without diversification, technological improvement, and increased productivity is easily reversed: all it takes is a dip in commodity prices.

Arancha Gonzalez

The beauty of diversification is it's about as close as you can get to a free lunch in investing.

Barry Ritholtz

In many ways, the Internet is about diversification, and yet, in the wrong hands, the digital world can use those very examples to reinforce the narrowest of perspectives.

Dan Levy

The starting point for energy security today as it has always been is diversification of supplies and sources.

Daniel Yergin

Over the last 50 years or so, we have seen an increasing cultural diversification across the country. Accents are a reflection of society, and as society changes, so accents change.

David Crystal

All mammals undergo a certain degree of diversification. Darwin knew that. When he drew a family tree, it had many branches on it.

Donald Johanson

As a consequence, geneticists described evolution simply as a change in gene frequencies in populations, totally ignoring the fact that evolution consists of the two simultaneous but quite separate phenomena of adaptation and diversification.

Ernst Mayr

Global capital is agnostic - it has no loyalties. There's an overhang of capital in the U.S., and the key is yield pickup. What Africa is providing is a diversification play and also opportunities for yield pickup for the investor that's aware of what he or she is doing.

Euvin Naidoo

We undertook a huge internal transformation to sharpen our customer focus, step up innovation, improve productivity to ensure competitiveness, change our culture, and simplify our ways of working so that our size and scale became a competitive advantage rather than a bureaucratic hangover after years of diversification.

Frans van Houten

Diversification and globalization are the keys to the future.

Fujio Mitarai

The development of our human resources is an area in which we need to do well as it is decisive in determining the success of our diversification programme.

Hassanal Bolkiah

I'm more compelled as an artist to see diversification than I am to keep watching an Anglo point of view in storytelling.

Joe Russo

Diversification has been, and balance, like Wellington, has been so drummed into me, it's part of my personality.

John C. Bogle

I like multinational companies. They may have 40 to 60 percent of their engines of growth in the United States, but I do like the diversification of being more global.

Laurence D. Fink

The oil and gas sector in the North Sea does have a strong future if we do the right things now, but we've got to make sure that the infrastructure is right to support the sector, but also to support, over the next few years, diversification as well.
