How does sharing information empower employees?

Think about trying to fix a stalled car without the basic knowledge of auto mechanics.  Sharing information and teaching your employees how the enterprise works allows them to make solid business decisions while they are in the heat of the moment.  Equipped with the right information, they’ll know not to discount a deal or to push hard for an end of month sale because they’ll understand what it means to the company and what it can also mean for them.
