On December 1st, 2019 Amit Baron joined Barkai’s team as our new Office Manager. Amit lives in Modiin, is married and is a mother to two children.  She has an MA in Organizational Consulting and is a certified coach. After recently completing a job at a medical startup company Amit searched for employment at a place that had a social vision and was inspirational where she would be able to contribute from her knowledge and broad experience in the organizational sphere.  In a recent temporary “relocation” that Amit experienced with her family in Palo Alto, California, Amit helped manage a Chabad House for Israelis in Palo Alto. There, she was able to see from up close the importance and complexity of the job of a community rabbi. Amit believes that the job of a community rabbi is to lead his community both in the religious sphere as well as the emotional and social spheres and therefore requires broad knowledge and skills that will assist him in this job. We welcome Amit to Barkai and wish her much success in helping Barkai achieve new heights.
