Reflections on Sharon's Leadership and Work
Todd Berman
Director of Institutional Advancement
Sharon is great. Empowering, thoughtful, and great at following through and making sure you do too. I loved working with her (and the entire RAISE team.)
Rachel Kohl Finegold
Educator
Sharon is a talented, bright, energetic and engaging professional. And if there is anyone who knows camp, inside and out, it’s her. She would be an asset to any team!
Abby Brockman
Trauma Chaplain
I've had the privilege of working with Sharon in both camp and professional settings for over 10 years and she continually impresses me with her ability to both vision and execute, lead and empower, teach and learn, do and be. She is strong, brilliant, sharp, genuine, brings out the best in her team/community in terms of both programmatic and interpersonal outcomes, and isn't constrained by what is but rather leans into what can be. No matter where she goes, she makes a profound difference in organizations and people's lives.
Michelle Lynn-Sachs
Founder
I came to know Sharon Weiss-Greenberg through our shared experience as Wexner Graduate Fellows. She has always impressed me with her optimistic, can-do spirit, her ability to execute on commitments, and her skill at seeing a situation through many different lenses. I have seen her present and teach with clarity and depth. I admire her talents and am grateful that she applies them to such worth endeavors.
Sara Wolkenfeld
Chief Learning Officer
Even years after we stopped working for the same organization, Sharon remains a trusted colleague and an important source of professional counsel. She is energetic, organized, and focused, and working with her is always a pleasure. I know that when Sharon and I partner on a project, real progress will be made, and I know that the experience will be positive one. I am happy to be contacted at any time to provide further information.
Elisha Gechter
Senior Program Officer
Sharon is a well-connected go-getter who aims high when it comes to quality engagement, thoughtful program content, genuine relationship building and the relentless pursuit of equity. I've know Sharon since college and have seen her excel in so many professional roles - from Hillel educator to NGO Executive Director. Her skills as a facilitator, planner and bridge builder are impressive. She is not afraid to tackle difficult issues in a community - whether that community is in person or online. She stands out in the Wexner alumni community and in several facebook groups supporting Jewish women leaders. She has continued to keep her finger on the pulse of the American Jewish community after making aliyah and has a talent for sharing her personal experiences in a way that is accessible and relatable for many. Any organization that Sharon works for is a lucky one, and those who get to call her friend feel lucky as well.
David Avraham
Corporate Associate
Sharon has a unique understanding of how to implement an organization’s vision through high-quality programming, collaboration, and team-building. Her leadership is by example: she works tirelessly; she is collegial and builds positive workplace environments; she advances an organization’s goals while also pushing the organization forward and unlocking new potential. I had an excellent experience working with Sharon and strongly recommend her for future leadership roles in the Jewish non-profit world or otherwise.
Temima Goldberg Shulman
Communications Specialist
I met Sharon Weiss-Greenberg when we spoke at a panel together. I enjoyed meeting her and later set up an event together with her through the non-profit I was operating. Sharon brought great passion and focus to her work. She helped facilitate practical matters with ease. Sharon is a great advocate for women's advancement as well as expanding educational possibilities within the Jewish community. I have no doubt Sharon would bring the same passion and practical know-how to whatever her next project would be.
