Jewish Leadership in the UK for the 21st Century: Values, Relationships and Intergenerational Renewal
June 2023
In 2022, UJIA, in partnership with the Jewish Leadership Council (JLC) and thanks to funding from the
Pears Foundation, engaged Rosov Consulting to design and conduct a study to explore Jewish leadership
in the UK to inform UJIA's and JLC's strategic planning. This research project had three primary goals.
The first was to develop a conceptual model of Jewish leadership in the UK and a map of the community's
existing leadership supports to show who is currently serving as Jewish leaders and what has shaped and
empowered them. The second was to identify the challenges Jewish leaders presently face, the issues they
are likely to encounter, and their readiness to do so, and provide recommendations for how UJIA and JLC
might better prepare and support these leaders now and for what lies ahead. The third goal of this project
was to present these findings to community stakeholders to spark reflections and generate meaning that
would assist UJIA and JLC in their approach to developing leaders and leadership structures to ensure a
future thriving Jewish community.
