What emanates environments? Decisions. Like all things, they are created by decisions, for more decisions to be made. So I agree with you that management creates environments (through decisions) for their employees to make great decisions as well.
However, as to if everyone needs to know everything, I still tend to respectfully disagree. Many employees, even great ones, may not want to be succumbed by the heaps of information that management has. Not many sales rep will want to know every financial figure from last years fiscal period. Things like that, things that don't affect their performance at work, can be seen as a hindrance sometimes.
And of course, management do not always know the best. We understand that they are not the people interacting with their clients and customers. And that is where, again, communication (vertical and horizontal) plays a major role. An effective organization will have efficient and effective means of two-way communications.
And to the point, many things can screw up a company. From one stupid to one ignorant decision.
