SUMMARY:Inside the Rabbis’ Study: Insights and Advice From Colleagues Serving As Solo Congregational Rabbis
DESCRIPTION:Stephanie Alexander\, Joseph Meszler\n\nThis is an exciting opportunity for us to hear from three colleagues serving in solo pulpits. Come hear their stories and experiences – from the wonderful to the not so wonderful; the differences between serving in a small congregation vs. a larger one; and also hear about the exciting and special things that are going on or have gone on in their congregations. If you are serving in a solo pulpit\, considering a solo pulpit\, or just want to hear about another rabbi’s experience this workshop is for you.

SUMMARY:The Yom Kippur Afternoon Experience: More Than Waiting to Eat
DESCRIPTION:Leon Morris and Eddie Goldberg with Janet Marder\, Shelly Marder\, Elaine Zecher and Peter Berg\n\n\nThrough the years\, many congregations have taken the opportunity to use creative endeavors at this point in the day\, such as healing services\, poetry readings\, and musical interludes. Other congregations have chosen to harken back to the Avodah service\, which others are trying to figure out what to do. We’ve explored these questions and look forward to a robust discussion and sharing of experiences and ideas about how to plan for this pinnacle moment of the Yom Kippur experience\, as we also offer a preview of our thoughts and direction vis-à-vis the new machzor.

SUMMARY:Overcoming the Five Dysfunctions of a Team
DESCRIPTION:Russ Sabia \n \nFor all the talk about the importance of teamwork by leaders\, it is largely untapped and unrealized in most organizations. \nMany organizations – filled with talented\, committed people – struggle to fulfill their full promise and find themselves bogged down by excessive interpersonal politics and confusion about what is really important. As a result\, things take much longer to get done\, results are much harder to accomplish\, and real dollar costs increase. \nAt its root\, this problem most often stems from leadership teams that lack cohesion and alignment\, and that fall victim to one or more of the Five Dysfunctions of Teams. \nIn this session\, learn about the five most common and destructive pitfalls of leadership teams\, and how trust\, conflict\, commitment\, and accountability all impact results. Discover practical and proven strategies to overcome these common dysfunctions and explore how leadership teams can become more effective by minimizing the politics\, confusion\, and unproductive behavior that prevent so many organizations from realizing their potential. \nJoin Russ Sabia\, Principal Consultant at The Table Group\, for this engaging discussion based on Patrick Lencioni’s best-selling book\, The 5 Dysfunctions of a Team.
