Open and honest communication within your organization is always a good thing.  Besides, in the age of Facebook, twitter, and WikiLeaks, you're better off telling the truth before someone else.

Consistency is Key to Success

Want to be successful?  Do what most people don't: stay consistent.  Lack of consistency will steal your dreams.  Inconsistency is one of the biggest reasons people don't achieve their goals, and instead end up living a life of frustration and disappointment.  When you start thinking of slacking off on your dreams and goals, consider the cost of inconsistency: loss of momentum.  Positive momentum is hard to get, but when you get it going, do everything in your power to keep it going.

Employee Engagement

Simply giving employees a sense of urgency - a feeling that they are in control, that they have genuine decision-making authority can radically increase how much energy and focus they bring to their jobs.

If you tell people what it takes to succeed, they'll prove you right!
