When you write "employee", what role is the employee in? Do they need to know so they can make good business and life choices? If not, it is just burdening them.
I definitely think that CxOs need to be aware of most of the things. I recently was asked to join a start-up in the C-suite, but had to turn it down. Too coy with details for my taste. If you trust me enough to invite me to take care of mission critical elements, do not hide things from me.
But, there is such a thing as over-sharing. Not every role is mission critical. If the role does not need the information to make business decisions there is no reason the share, in my opinion.
>Should I share info on upcoming behind-the-scenes partnerships, etc with employees to pump them up?
Will it directly impact their work? If so, share it with them. If not, what is "pump them up" mean? Are you looking for a Steven Ballmer presentation reaction?
I will presume you have an NDA and non-compete with all of your employees.
