The document discusses the problems that can arise from siloed organizational cultures where different departments focus only on their own goals and agendas. Specifically, it notes that silos can cause departments to lose sight of the big picture, communication breaks down between teams, and employees report a lack of support from colleagues. While silos may form naturally, the key is to eliminate the problems they cause, such as decreased social capital and disordered decision-making. This can be addressed by defining shared company values, encouraging innovation, and creating opportunities for employees to collaborate across departments.
