The Innovation Within: Building Your Professional Compass
Sara Miller is speaking at the 2026 PEP-RJ Conference.
In institutions where traditional career ladders are rare, innovation isn't just about new programs—it's about reimagining your own professional growth within your current role. Using the framework that organizations use to define their mission, vision, and values, we explore how creating your own personal compass can transform how you navigate career development in the lattice-style growth common in synagogues and Jewish nonprofits. Through reflection exercises and practical tools drawn from organizational development and career coaching, you'll discover how yesterday's experiences become today's strategic self-knowledge, positioning you to build tomorrow's legacy of intentional professional evolution—whether that means deepening your impact in your current role or preparing for future opportunities.
