A global event at IC’s scale takes a worldwide team of excellent leaders. Each year, Alephs and B’nai B’rith Girls apply for hundreds of roles to leverage their talents to build an unprecedented experience that outdoes itself every year. We have immense gratitude for the team below who has worked tirelessly to pull this event off.
If IC’s energy inspires you to take a more active role in the Movement, explore the Lead Hub for dozens of year-round opportunities to partner with your peers on big projects and exciting endeavors underway right now.
Join the team that hosts our LEADS Day 2023! This year we are holding 45 tracks around various themes. We are looking for teen leaders who can write the track script, host the speakers and teen participants, and ensure that the 3-hour program runs smoothly. Ahead of arriving in Dallas, you will work with the Leads Day Captains and Admins. We anticipate 4-7 hours of work ahead of your arrival in Dallas.
