The report is based on interviews and surveys from employees. The seven problems identified include:

-A general lack of accountability.

-No shared vision for the future or “what good looks like.”

-Lack of trust and fear of retribution.

-Ambiguity about roles and responsibilities.

-Poor communication.

-Lack of training.

-Separate agendas “at some levels and in some functional areas.”

Many of the institutional problems are “common ills for complex, diverse, highly visible organizations,” according to the report.
