3 MINUTES READING TIME   

CYP Ambassadors is a fellowship for strong leadership development in the Jewish and business communities.

 

We seek the dynamic young professional who has proven their passion and commitment to creating positive change in the world around them.

 

We connect them with fellow Jewish change-makers, mentors, and leading minds from across the globe, to envision a better future and develop actionable plans of change.

 

We empower them with the knowledge and know-how to create the change they seek, and the leadership skills to inspire others to join.

 

And then they change the world.

01| Education

During the Education Phase ambassadors will bolster their knowledge as Jewish influencers while developing skills of effective leadership.

Our 6-module course of study explores the role of leadership in Judaism. You will analyze the makings of great Jewish leaders and parse the skills needed to lead Jewish communities in contemporary times. Round-table sessions will give you facetime with prominent local and global influencers.

03| Action

The goal of the entire fellowship, Phase 3 is when the education, inspiration, and leadership skills learned during the program culminate in practical and purposeful action. Each CYP chapter’s committee of ambassadors will develop and launch programs to serve the unique needs and circumstances of their local community. Each ambassador will take on leadership roles amongst their peers, host Shabbat meals, and be a warm and welcoming guide to newcomers to the CYP community.
