Are you interested in leadership development and social action?

Common Purpose gives people the inspiration, the knowledge and the connections they need to produce real change - in their workplaces and in their communities.

The 360 website is Common Purpose in action! It's a hub for leadership development news and inspiring stories about social action; for sharing and finding information and ideas. It's also an online resource that complements the learning of participants and alumni on Common Purpose courses.

About Common Purpose

We are a not-for-profit organisation that brings together people from a wide range of backgrounds, sectors and career stages - who might otherwise never meet - on unique, experiential, leadership development courses. Our courses are not based in the classroom or the lecture theatre - we take people out into their communities to meet and learn from leaders who make things happen in all kinds of different worlds. We also offer a range of customised courses and one-day special events.

If you want to find more or get involved in a Common Purpose course in your area, visit www.commonpurpose.org, check out our blog at www.commonpurpose.net or follow us on Twitter or LinkedIn.

What does the 360 website have to offer?

Leadership Hub: A developing hub for leadership development news and inspiring stories about social action, and for sharing and finding information and ideas. Make it your first stop for articles, insights, videos and more and get a taste of what Common Purpose is all about!

The other exciting features of the website include:

Non-executive vacancies: Have you ever considered taking up a role as a trustee or board member of a public organisation? Help lead social change while developing yourself.

Searching for a non-executive position? Looking for trustees or other board members at your organisation? Use the 360 website to search for or advertise details of board and other non-executive vacancies.

Take action on the Common Purpose 360 Day: Are you looking beyond the familiar for new ideas? There is very real value in finding learning in unexpected places - you could find a new insight into or solution to a problem you face.

The 360 Day is an open invitation on 10 October each year to challenge the way you see the world. It may be something on your own, or with others; something simple or involved; online or face-to-face; local or international. It's up to you.

The 360 website is the place to record the action you're going to take on (or around) the 360 Day, find out what other people will be doing, and share any outcomes or learning from the day.

Take part in a Common Purpose Quest: Have you ever considered going outside the confines of your town, city or region to challenge your approach to problems? Common Purpose Quests are your opportunity to do so! Spend a day immersed in the economic, political and social context of another location (at home or overseas), learning lessons and comparing challenges with leaders from across the world. Gain a unique insight into the leadership culture of another location.

 Be Inspired! Where do some of the most successful business people get their inspiration from, and where does yours come from? What books, articles, magazines, videos, podcasts etc helped define the way they lead? Find out here, and maybe find some inspiration of your own.

Testimonials: Read personal stories from Common Purpose alumni about the impact of their course. Find out what they learnt, what inspired them and what they are doing differently as a result as they share the benefits for themselves, their organisations and the wider society.
