OUR CONVERSATION:
“Leading toward the Light: Adaptive Challenges Facing the Jewish People in 5784”
The Wexner Foundation’s philosophy and curriculum have been built around the concept of adaptive leadership and how it mobilizes people to make progress on collective challenges over time by facing the inevitable resistance to change. Through a presentation by Rabbi Jay Henry Moses and small- and large-group conversations, you will delve into the theory of adaptive leadership through the lens of present day antisemitism.
