No More Maybes – Time to Get Clear


Clarity is key

May 2025

Hello, Transform360 community!

Clarity takes guts. It’s far easier to stay vague, soften the truth, or bury our needs under layers of politeness. But real connection, powerful leadership, and productive teamwork demand something more from us: clarity. This month, we’re shining a light on direct communication—not as confrontation, but as a gift, a way forwards When we speak clearly and listen fully, we build trust, reduce friction, and make things actually happen. Let’s start saying what matters. You may find that you are not clear yourself on your thoughts and feelings, but stay in the discomfort and try to work it out. What is your actual message? And perhaps even more fascinating, what is the motivation behind your message?

What inspires you

The Courage to Be Clear—Lessons from the South Pole

In Ryan Fernandez’s latest Lessons in Leadership podcast, he shares a powerful truth: clarity is not a luxury—it’s a survival tool.

By comparing two explorers—Robert Falcon Scott and Roald Amundsen—Ryan shows us the critical role of clear goals, structured processes, and disciplined action. Scott’s unclear planning and poor execution cost lives. Amundsen’s crystal-clear strategy and commitment led to triumph.

In leadership and life, vagueness costs energy, trust, and success. Clarity saves it.

So this month, inspired by Ryan’s insights, we invite you to step boldly into clarity—in your goals, your communication, and your leadership.

If you are looking to forge forwards in leadership, contact contact Ryan to find out more about our Leadership Development Program.
