How Much Should I Tell My People? --

Corrections Colleague,

An executive concern for many bosses is the question, "how much do my people need to know?"  Unfortunately, many choose to withhold information.

Here's what I think.  If you want results from people, you have to let them know the facts.  The what, when, why and how's of a situation.  When people don't know the information, they fill in the blanks.  This is how rumors and gossip start.

Good bosses keep their people informed and they do it promptly.  It is crucial to getting results and keeping a satisfied and committed team.

The question should be -- "What is the best way to get this information to the folks quickly and accurately for best results?"

In Leadership,
Sobem
