What do you see?
We all have a unique way we look at the world, but does our
viewpoint restrict our belief in our ability to make a
difference?
What is the Comon Purpose 360 Day?
The 360 Day is an invitation on 10 October each year to anyone,
across the world, to do one thing, big or small, to challenge your
perception of the world.
What's the first step?
Common Purpose encourages you to take responsibility for leading
change in your organisation or in the wider society. But the first
step is to make a personal change by challenging the way
you look at the world.
On 10 October each year we invite you
to take time out of your day to do one thing, big or small, to
challenge your perception of the way things are.
Visit the Common Purpose 360 website and find
out what people did on the 360 Day last year...
Why get involved?
Discover the value of finding learning
in unexpcted places - it's at the heart of everything that Common
Purpose does.
Even if the global recession is
lifting, it can still make us feel insecure, more reliant upon
people who see things in a similar way. Are you looking beyond the
familiar for new ideas? How often do you find yourself in a
different environment and what do you learn from it?
Your experience could help you find a
new insight into or solution to a problem you face. You may find
some help and expertise from someone, somewhere or something that
you didn't expect. Even something small could be of significant
value to you.
How do I get involved?
Visit the Common Purpose 360 website
for a whole host of ideas of things you can do to get involved on
the 360 Day. Big or small, personal or with a group, local or
international, there's ideas for everyone.
We would love to hear what you are
planing to do this year - and you can tell us by visiting the
Common Purpose 360 website and sharing the action you plan to
take. And after 10 October, come back to the 360
website to share how it went, and what you learnt!
Here's some other examples of what people have done in the
past:
- "I normally drive to work, but I am going to use public
transport"
- "I will be going to the Full Sutton prison to work with
some of the inmates."
- "On 10 October I am going down to read a motivational book
by Steve Chandler! Thanks or the inspiration!"
- "I am supporting a new business venture, giving the benefit
of my corporate experience and connections to a new
entrepreneur."
Or you could:
- Ask 3 people who live outside your area what their
impressions are of it
- Go to a meeting or an event that you, and others who
know you, would consider it unlikely for you to attend
- Meet someone who is actively campaigning or fighting
for a change in your business or community
- Take yourself out for a cup of coffee/tea and reflect
on your personal brand.
