When teams struggle to integrate diverse perspectives they requested

Our team hired me specifically to bring a different perspective, but every time I actually offer that perspective in meetings, there's this weird energy where people nod politely and then continue with whatever they were already planning. I can't tell if they genuinely don't understand what they asked for or if they're just not ready for the discomfort of actually changing.
