TheKNOW

TheKnow programme, delivered by Common Purpose, enables participants from a range of sectors, to explore and work through real life leadership challenges. This takes the form of observation and interaction with different and varied organisations in Northern Ireland.

The Department for Employment and Learning now provides support for Senior Manager participants from Small Medium Enterprises in Northern Ireland.

TheKNOW participants commit to three days, at the beginning, midpoint and end of the programme, During these days, participants work as a group. In between, participants work in smaller, specially
crafted learning groups, at times and in ways that suit the participants’ schedules.

Participants choose from a wide range of flexible learning modules, all created and run by Common Purpose staff, to achieve between 60-90 hours in order to graduate. Organisational visits provide varied
experience, designed to help them find inspiration outside their usual sphere of experience.
