Navigating the delicate balance of when to share sensitive information with your team is one of leadership's greatest challenges. We explore the ethics of transparency and how to determine when to tell your team the truth about difficult organizational changes.
• Leaders must evaluate whether information directly impacts team members' personal lives
• Return-to-office mandates warrant immediate disclosure so people can make necessary arrangements
• Organizational changes not affecting your team might not need immediate sharing
• The spectrum between full transparency and withholding information requires careful navigation
• Competitive intelligence raises ethical and legal concerns requiring HR and legal consultation
• Sometimes protecting your team means not sharing information that would create unnecessary anxiety
• Creating a culture of trust involves thoughtful disclosure rather than automatic transparency
• How you handle sensitive information reflects your leadership philosophy and priorities
