Discuss the organizational factors (culture, lack of training, communication styles, organizational structure, job design, leadership, power, historical context, retaliation, etc) that existed at the time of the case that would allow such practices to happen and, in some cases, to persist for extended periods. In multiple cases, more than one person was involved (HR, assistant manager, manager, district, or area manager). Discuss why no one in the management chain intervened. Support your answer.
