Why we exist

Being a Jewish leader right now is hard. It can feel lonely, disorienting, and overwhelming. The structures many of us relied on are shifting, and the way forward isn’t always clear.

Chavurot exists to bring mid-career and executive level professionals together in this uncertainty.

We support leaders in strengthening peer connections, growing professionally, and staying grounded during times of change.
