Diversity is one of the essential tenets of modern day places. It leads to wide array of ideas being bounced of leading to business innovation. Certain signs have been identified which point out to a lack of clear cut diversity of thought within an organization. At such places leaders wish to control rather than motivate. The business overwhelms the individuals rather than the latter influencing the former. There has been a cultural demographic shift but that does not reflect at such firms. Also at such places there is a major disparity between the mission statement and the actual practices at the workplace. Older work practices do not get challenged in these environments. Crucially, departments work in silos and do not collaborate with others for achieving common organizational goals.
