CREATING CHABAD’S PERSONNEL WING

More Shluchim.
Reaching more Yidden.

SOS helps Shluchim hire well, build strong teams, and reach deeper into their communities. It helps Yungerleit find respectable positions where they can succeed and grow.

From the first hire through years of growth, SOS provides the structure and support to help all parties thrive.

A New Standard for SOS

01
Care

Every Shliach is someone’s precious child. Treat him the way you would want your own child treated.

02
Wellbeing

The way a Shliach is treated during the day goes home with him at night. Make it your business that he goes home every night feeling valued, cared for, and fulfilled.

03
Your Shliach Is Your Shlichus

A Shliach is more than the role he fills. He has talents, a family, and a future. Leadership means caring for the life entrusted to you and helping him grow into the Shliach and leader he can become.

Take good care of your Shliach & he will take good care of your Shlichus.

THE THINKING BEHIND SOS

Bringing the Best of Organizational Leadership to Shlichus.

For decades, leading businesses and leadership experts have studied the people side of organizations: how to hire well, build strong teams, foster collaboration, and create cultures where people thrive.

From Netflix’s emphasis on freedom and responsibility to the Chapman Foundation’s approach to Truly Human Leadership, the business world has developed valuable insights into what makes people and organizations successful.

SOS aims to bring these lessons into the world of Shlichus.

Combining professional leadership practices with the values of Ahavas Yisrael, SOS seeks to help Shluchim build healthy, thriving Mosdos where every Shliach feels trusted, valued, and empowered to succeed.

The Five Commitments of a Hiring Shliach

Respect Boundaries

Establish clear expectations and respect family time, personal space, and reasonable limits.

03

Trust with Responsibility

Give every Shliach meaningful ownership, independence, and room to lead.

04

Communicate & Collaborate

Listen, communicate openly, and build a working relationship grounded in mutual trust and respect.
