About Common Purpose
Common Purpose was founded in 1989 by current CEO,
Julia Middleton,[3] a published author, co-founder of DEMOS, and an "expert" on
leadership.[4]
It claims its aim is to improve the way organisations and society work
together by developing all kinds of leaders through a programme of diverse
challenges and approaches.[5]
It is registered as a charity, even though it headhunts potential attendees
of its leadership courses, for which it charges rather large sums of money.
"Graduates" of Common Purpose meet in secret under the Chatham House Rule.
