An industrial chemical manufacturer had a company culture and mission statement that emphacized cutting costs and increasing revenue by any legal means. A new executive to the company begins requiring each department to come up with specific goals and objectives to become more socially and environmentally responsible. Each department supplies the new executive with their plans to match her criteria, but after three months, none have been implemented. This is an example of:

a company whose mission and culture are not aligned

Explanation:

A mission statement of a company refers to the short statement of why a company operates, what its overall objective is, defining the purpose of its operations: what kind of product or service it offers, its primary clients or sector, and its geographic region of operation.

Corporate culture relates to a business's character. This dictates the atmosphere for workers to work in. Culture of the business contains a variety of factors like workplace, purpose of the organisation, meaning, morals, priorities and objectives.

Thus, from the above we can conclude that the mission and culture of the organization in the given question contradicts each other.
