Prof. W. Ressel: "At the University of Stuttgart we understand diversity as an asset and strength and have adopted the slogan "Intelligence in Diversity" with our diversity strategy."
Prof. W. Ressel: „We want to create opportunities rather than see difficulties, we want to break down barriers and promote equal opportunities, and this we want for all university members."
Prof. S. Wieprecht: “Diverse teams take decisions twice as fast while requiring only half of the meetings."
Prof. S. Wieprecht: "However, diversity is not always so easy to measure. In the lunch talk of the School for Talents with the Evangelisches Studienwerk Villigst, it became clear that, for example, talent is not only visible through measurable certificates of achievement, but that the person must be considered with all their abilities and background."
