When teams claim to be data-driven but aren't

Our leadership team says we want to be data-driven but when the data conflicts with what someone already believes, we find ways to dismiss it or question the methodology. We've done this three times in six months and everyone sees it happening but we keep pretending we're being objective and rigorous.
