But, as with Sandler, the ultimate successor may just be someone who has sat back, smiled and nodded their head in assent the last three years. This isn't UJA after all, hell it's not even CJF where the weakest of Board Chairs was surrounded by men and women of strength, and a strong CEO.

Has that person been named yet, and if not, who are the contenders?<br />Perhaps we would better serve the system by lobbying those individuals.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8565163061165974643.post-79302318779104933342018-01-01T11:31:26.956-06:002018-01-01T11:31:26.956-06:00No leadership!

Sandler's interview confirms that the organization is totally lost with Sandler pointing in multiple directions, Silverman pointing in others and JFNA headed nowhere at all. It's as if the JFNA "silos" have been allowed to operate unmanaged, never accountable and the federations paying the tab without demanding any accountability. At the least, over Silverman's tenure, JFNA has literally burned $270 million. #soproudAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8565163061165974643.post-87055992928369663782018-01-01T08:50:16.286-06:002018-01-01T08:50:16.286-06:00If Sandler cared about the system he was elected t...If Sandler cared about the system he was elected to serve and lead, if he even cared about his own leadership reputation, after two years as Board Chair he would have acted to terminate Jerry Silverman's contract and begin an effort to fill the CEO position withsomeone capable and responsible. That he has not done so tells us all we need to know. Richard Sandler would rather do nothing than have to actually lead.
