From the SeniorITIS Blog
“Israel Program Center is the link between Greater MetroWest and Israel. Its programming makes Israelis and Americans accessible to one another through travel, community celebrations and education while always recognizing the importance of pluralism, leadership, community service and Israel.” Intertwined between these four values is Derech Eretz, the way that we treat and behave towards one another. Derech Eretz is the foundation of the bonds between us and the core of Judaism.” - Carmelle Bargad Jewish Values at Work
“… I am most excited about possible making this video and gaining the experience of working that will allow me to succeed in the future. A Jewish value that I believe is most significant in this particular workplace is k'vod ha-b'riot, or honor all human beings, because all of the employees have respect for each other and their camaraderie allows them to get work done efficiently. Hopefully, I can learn from their respect for each other to make myself a more effective worker.” - Scott Levinson Jewish Values at Work
