No one can do this alone, but the more people who are drawn into the effort with a shared vision for what could be, the better the chance that when one person falters for a while in their commitment, the others on the team can lift them up and carry them until they are once again ready to run on their own. The leaders that keep coming back to their core values and who demand that those around them do the same are able to turn obstacles into opportunities and setbacks into profound learning experiences. Jim Collins, in Good to Great, talks about getting the flywheel moving. Once it's truly in motion, it takes far less effort to keep it moving. That's where this work is headed - building a deep and highly valuable momentum that will lift others toward a different landscape of Jewish learning, one only now beginning to emerge.TLGropperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13098558375613775530noreply@blogger.com
