By improving a group’s critical mass in a setting, you can improve its members’ trust, comfort, and performance in the setting.
Does this suggest aggregating people from underrepresented groups into more homogeneous subgroups where underrepresented groups exist in your endeavor? Does that help or hinder, as it seems like it would be transparent that groups are less diverse than the population as a whole...and why?
Note: the next bullet says to mix people of different backgrounds up so they interact more. I guess this means you need your whole population of your endeavor needs critical mass—can’t fake it by pulling like backgrounds together?
