What this episode covers
In Part 2 of our special Professional Development for Rabbis mini-series, presented in partnership with the Sy Syms School of Business at Yeshiva University, Professor Pablo Hernández-Lagos explores the meaning of truth, trust, and timeless leadership as it relates to rabbis. How do you build trust when entering a new community? How can a rabbi earn the trust of others yet still protect himself by being thoughtful about whom he confides in? How can leaders stay grounded when dealing with difficult or even toxic personalities? What can you do when you must take an unpopular stand or deliver a difficult message to congregants or students? And what helps a rabbi build strong partnerships with board members without feeling controlled or losing his leadership footing? We also discuss how AI is reshaping ideas of expertise and truth, and what rabbis and educators should know and teach about its risks and opportunities. Throughout the conversation, Pablo draws on history, behavioral science, and years of leadership research to offer insights that are practical and relevant.
