The Selah Approach The Selah Leadership Program is rooted in the belief that by transforming leaders, we are better able to transform society. Selah’s Executive Cohort will bring 22 to 26 social change leaders together for eight days of intensive leadership and management training over six months. Selah approaches this learning process on three levels: the person, the organization, and the field, integrating individual development, organizational effectiveness, and collaboration skills.
The application proces is highly competitive and open to Jews interested in exploring the connections between social justice and Judaism.

The Selah Leadership Program, which trains leaders in leaders in Jewish and secular organizations to be effective change agents, recently completed its eighth program cohort - passing the 200-participant mark over the program's history!
Selah was fortunate to be one of 10 grantees of the Slingshot Fund, which provided a grant of $40,000 to support this latest group (the Boston City Cohort) and our alumni work. As part of Selah’s mid-year report to Slingshot, we were asked to create a short video highlighting our work in real time. Using a Flip camera, Selah staff captured some short interviews with Selahniks (our participants) in the Boston Cohort and the Network.
