What does it really mean to belong to the Jewish people in an age that prizes individual identity? This session explores how personal purpose and collective responsibility strengthen one another—and how reclaiming both can transform your Jewish life.

Rabbi Dr. Shmuly Yanklowitz is a leading Jewish ethicist and social-impact leader. As President & Dean of Valley Beit Midrash in Scottsdale, Arizona, he cultivates a vibrant, pluralistic network of learning and moral leadership engaging thousands across denominations, cultures, and faith traditions. A nationally recognized scholar, Rabbi Yanklowitz holds a doctorate from Harvard University and rabbinic ordination from Yeshivat Chovevei Torah. He has authored 30 books on Jewish ethics and spirituality, written widely for major national publications, and represented Jewish moral leadership at the World Economic Forum.
