Join us for PEARL: Providing Education and Resources for Leadership.
The congregation is not a business, it’s a system. Understanding how the system works is central to the process of evaluation, whether it be of program or of the rabbi-congregation relationship. Using systems theory as a basis for discussion, examples of successful goal setting, liaison structures, and evaluation processes will be highlighted.

Join us for PEARL: Providing Education and Resources for Leadership.
We can’t lead in a vacuum – the work of leadership is done within a larger system. Whether you are on the board, a member of a committee, part of the executive committee, or a staff member, working within a well-defined governance structure can help to clarify roles and responsibilities. This session will highlight effective models for structuring and managing the congregational board.

Join us for PEARL: Providing Education and Resources for Leadership.
In the fast paced and ever-changing world of technology and marketing, congregations must be innovative in order to effectively reach out to their congregants. Using best practices and new models for engagement, this workshop will highlight exciting models for sharing the ongoing life of your congregation, enhancing your website and newsletter, and using both to mobilize members to be active in the community.
This session will be offered in-person for congregational leaders in driving distance of the JRF offices at Beit Devora (Jenkintown, PA).
