While quotas appear to sometimes be necessary to break some environments open, they're polarising & produce resentment. I wouldn't expect that to be a necessary part of a high performance team if you can address the bias that keeps under-represented groups out in the first place.
The evidence that hiring processes are both biased and poorly predictive of productivity is pretty strong. I would start by fixing that (and am doing).
