Encounter’s Intensive Leadership Seminars, by-invitation-only, are heavily subsidized programs for deeply committed high-level Jewish professionals and volunteer leaders. Past participants of Encounter’s programs are invited to nominate colleagues and peers for participation in a future Intensive Leadership Seminar. Cohorts are carefully curated to reflect a diversity of sectors, denominational affiliation and political views.

Please Note: There is limited space in each cohort and as such, nominations do not guarantee an invitation.
