Crowdsourcing: Diverse Voices & Better Results
Description:
Crowdsourcing platforms attract a genuine diversity of thought and perspectives, often leading to better results. Drawing talent from everywhere opens up professional opportunities for those who may have never had access to top companies in the past. Contributors can join crowdsourcing communities from anywhere and with any background – no resume or pedigree is required; talent and performance are the key metrics for success. Crowdsourcing and freelancing provide paying jobs that allow people to develop skills and gain access to new opportunities, building upon successes they’ve achieved. At the same time, companies and brands benefit from new ways of thinking as well as open access to authentic voices, creating work more reflective of a diverse population.
