Kathy Knott
Bridging Year Academy Programme Manager
How would you describe your personal brand?
I love helping people to find their path in life. My personal brand is about exploration and appreciation – of both the self and the world.
What are your goals and aspirations?
My goal is to be part of the solution for South Africa, helping young women and men to find a sense of purpose and meaningful work. I strive to embrace lifelong learning, and have both a curiosity for everything and a growth mindset.
What do you consider to be your most impressive achievements?
I am so privileged to be part of the team that has grown the Bridging Year Academy into the holistic programme it is today. I hope and trust that it will continue to go from strength to strength and spread like a beautiful, pink web across our country.
What's one quirky or fun fact about you?
I have my best ideas first thing in the morning, after a good night’s sleep. Often they wake me up!
