- Security and trust. Our ISO27001 process requires that we run a background check before people can log in to systems. Locally, you have known places to do background checks. Internationally it is more difficult. - Monoculture. While diversity is valuable, monoculture teams generally run teams. Banter is easier (less likelihood of people being offended), relationships between team members form easier (collegues become 'friends'), conflict is easier to resolve. Never mind different regions around the world, it can be difficult to integrate different genders or ages into existing teams. This especially happens when team members get to interview candidates, they will (subconciously) favour people that are similar to themselves. When you have limited management skills or time, a smoothly running team is useful.
