When leadership teams shut down difficult feedback

Our executive team says we want diverse perspectives but when someone brings up an uncomfortable point about culture or process, we all get defensive and change the subject. We've done this three times in the last month and I think we're teaching people not to bring us problems we don't want to hear.
