Ive found that a team composed of profesionals from varied fields or strengths [eg marketer, financial analyst, manager, Tech expert, Researcher] work better because no one tries to out smart the other and they respect one another due to the fact that its understod that there is only 1 person more knowledgable in a concentration than the other so theres more room to learn from colleagues.
Nice succinct preso. I found myself waiting to hear some mention of gender diversity, but none came. 2006. My how things have changed (or not - I wonder if Prof Eisenhardt would modify her comments to add that now?). Secondly, I believe an important component of effective teams that I'd add to what was presented here is psychological safety. This has to do with trusting one another and showing mutual respect. Only then can the type of diversity she advocates actually work.
