What happens when old models of power no longer serve us? In this episode of Rewrite Radio, Rabbi Elan Babchuck draws from his book Picking Up the Pieces to explore “Mosaic leadership,” a vision rooted in humility, resilience, and community. Through stories of Moses, modern innovators, and even his own children, Babchuck invites us to move from pyramids of control to circles of belonging—and to imagine new horizons of leadership in uncertain times.

Rabbi Elan Babchuck is Executive Vice President at CLAL (The National Jewish Center for Learning and Leadership) and Founding Executive Director of Glean Network. Ordained in 2012, he also holds an MBA, and works at the intersection of entrepreneurship and faith, helping shape new models of spiritual leadership.

This talk was recorded live at the 2024 Festival of Faith & Writing.
