Connect & Learn | Response-ability: The Rigors and Rewards of Being Responsible
Build skills you can apply immediately to your life and work, and at the same time enjoy being part of a lively network of learners and community leaders.
Sessions are online, live, interactive, and collaborative. Each session will include time to connect, network, meet new colleagues, and strengthen relationships.
The February 9 session will be led by Dr. David Gottlieb.
Response-ability: The Rigors and Rewards of Being Responsible. Holding yourself and others responsible is about more than assigning roles and assessing blame -- in Jewish tradition, it is a discipline of being deeply honest with oneself and present to others. Learn how studying and opening to this attribute can transform your relationship to work, life, love, and self.
Programs take place via Zoom. Login instructions will be provided to ticket holders by email 24 hours in advance.
