Stepping Forward Together can help leaders create their vision and put these changes into perspective and help them take a leadership stance in a challenging world. This book provides a resource that empowers them with planning tools and exercises to engage the community and step forward.

One of the signs of a vital congregation is its leadership. Prospective leaders and members may look at our building, programs, and brochures, but they will also take the measure of our leadership. Do our leaders seem to take joy in Jewish living? Does Judaism make our leaders' board governance something special-something of which prospective leaders and members want to be a part? This workbook is an attempt to build board consensus about critical governance functions and to create a systematic plan to motivate and support leaders in developing new practices. By focusing on shared congregational goals, leaders will provide the right direction, make the right assignments, and provide the right feedback-building enduring relationships as they do this important leadership work.
