To discuss the issue of narrative (I am new on here and I am not wanting to make enemies

I have been in Business and I have learnt a lot of lessons through it. One of them is about empowering people to help. The issue of management is to get people to want to do what you want them to do. Set realistic goals and invite productivity... Action works!!
Me too. And ditto.
But, given you have been in business, you will surely agree that what you share with your team, and how you seek to motivate and enthuse them, is likely to be different to what you share with Joe public? That maybe your team would be a bit miffed if Joe public knew as much as they did, and maybe knew things that you have realised it would not be motivational to tell them?
And that your approach to each constituency you need to motivate - your team, your customers, your sponsors, your regulator, your suppliers, your bankers, your friends, whoever - and the nature and extent of the information you will choose to share with them - will almost always be different between each group?
Just like you would (I presume?) seek to tailor your management approach - and nature and extent of information disclosed - within your team to the individual and the circumstances?
So, whilst not seeking to comment on specifics of what the current BoD have or have not shared with the general public, I find no difficulty in expressing violent agreement (a figure of speech...) with what MB concluded.
