"What if we train our people and they leave?" "What if we don't and they stay?"

Forward-looking entrepreneurs are building in public. In my opinion, sharing news and information with core team is overall a positive investment.

If there's a lack of trust, maybe, there are bigger problems in the startup to fix?

Not investing into your people is a sure fire way to be ineffective and signal to people that they’re not worth training and should leave. Couldn’t agree more with you.

I have made the claim in support of transparency before that it matters little if even my competitor would be able to get ahold of my road map as an extreme example of transparency. My forecast is that sure, they might zig or zag a bit differently but the reality is that their road map is already full of the things that they need to build next as well as their best ideas. They are my competitor, and generally they are going to consider their ideas superior to my own, so why would you expect them to change and copy my road map?

succinct and accurate, transparency triumphs, though there are some details that should be kept among a few until the deal is done. It definitely depends on the size of the company
