IMPACT: HEBREW INSTITUTE OF RIVERDALE
The SPARK Fellowship to Ignite Innovation is an 8-month learning and practical experience for synagogues and other legacy Jewish organizations in the New York area. We guide them through a process of:
Designing likely-to-succeed innovations
Testing innovations through low-cost and low-stakes prototypes
Learning to manage resistance to change within the community
To do so, we guide synagogues and institutions, step-by-step, through the following process of Learning, Researching, Designing, and Implementing. Completed once, synagogues create and test a new innovation.
Through many iterations, synagogues will build up a sustained culture of creativity and experimentation.
We help Jewish institutions cultivate a culture of innovation and experimentation.
