	Leadership
		Leadership by those moved to action, by those who wish to make a difference, to change the way life is. We have to stop looking only to paid employees, functionaries, and start looking for leadership from the ranks, from lay people who are moved to make a difference, who are genuinely inspired.
		We shouldn’t seek inspiration from Jewish communal and religious leaders who are in it for the power, the glamour, the wrong reasons, and we have to seek inspiration from the truly inspired.
		Leadership is setting a standard for what an acceptable gift to a given charity is. Leadership is when Esther called for a three day fast and promised that vegam ani venaarotai atzum ken, that she too, the Princess herself would join in the fasting and prayer.

		American Jewish leaders, with only a few courageous exceptions, remained in blind support long after the rising Israeli death toll demonstrated that this was a road to war and not to peace.

	Judenrat
		These councils of Jewish elders, (Judenrat; plural: Judenräte), were responsible for organizing the orderly deportation to the death camps, for detailing the number and occupations of the Jews in the ghettos, for distributing food and medical supplies, and for communicating the orders of the ghetto Nazi masters.
		In the many cases where Jewish leaders refused to volunteer to serve on the Judenrat, the Germans appointed Jews to serve on a random basis.
		Underground Jewish organizations sprang up in the ghettos to serve as alternatives to the Judenrat, some of which were established with a military component to organize resistance to the Nazis.

		In looking at classical Jewish leadership from Moshe to Shaul to David, one finds a trait common to them all that is missing in Yosef: All three of these great Jewish leader did not seek out leadership – on the contrary they avoided it.
		Ideal Jewish leadership is what was seen during the time of the Shoftim, wherein human leaders only arose to meet a specific need - if and when the need was past, they went back into private life.
