Strengthening Confidence in Leadership - October 2025


Confidence in Leadership

October 2025

Hello, Transform360 community!

October often brings a strange energy—it’s not quite the end, but it’s no longer the middle. And in 2025, the weight of the year feels especially present.

Leadership in South Africa is shifting. We’ve witnessed tragedy, uncertainty, and global tension. I have to wonder if we are leading with fear...? Reply and tell me if you think so.

At Transform360, we believe that in seasons like this, the most powerful leaders are the ones who return to clarity, consistency, and connection. Not just for their teams—but for their customers. This month, we explore how clear, confident leadership—especially in sales—can reignite morale, sharpen purpose, and drive momentum in an uncertain world.

Your Turn for a challenge

Confidence audit:

Take 5 minutes to answer these questions honestly:

  1. Where am I showing up with confidence—and where am I avoiding visibility?
  2. What’s one thing I’ve stopped doing this year that I know makes a difference?
  3. Where am I over-explaining, over-promising, or under-connecting with my team or customers?
  4. How would my customers describe me after every interaction—clear? scattered? invisible?
  5. What’s one confident move I can make this month—something decisive and energising?

Confidence is a muscle - let's strengthen it.
