Common Purpose Ireland is a not-for-profit organisation that brings together people from a wide range of backgrounds to help them become more effective leaders in society. We run a range of leadership development courses in Ireland that offer participants the inspiration, knowledge and connections to help them become more active and engaged in society. Our courses provide unique insights into how leaders from all walks of life tackle day to day challenges in towns and cities. Participants are able to see at firsthand how different organisations - at a local, national or international level - work together; how their areas of responsibility can overlap and interconnect; and how effective leadership depends on having a broader perspective and better understanding of the people, places and organisations around them. The courses bring together people from very different backgrounds and sectors who might otherwise never meet. They are introduced to unfamiliar situations and presented with challenging scenarios, so they can see at first hand how others make decisions. This provides invaluable insights into how people from varying backgrounds lead their organisations; why they take particular approaches and what works and what doesn't. To get people and organisations working together effectively, our courses focus on how leaders need to see and act beyond their own immediate area of responsibility, so they don't take decisions in isolation.
