    Business Values and Ethics from a Jewish Perspective
    Tuesday, May 14th 7:00p to 8:30p
    An Open Discussion with Craig Aronoff and Rabbi Steve Lebow. Decision-making in business is a daily - if not hourly - activity.  With the media and business communities becoming more divisive, making it harder to do business, it’s time to rethink how you make decisions. What does Judaism tell us about ethics in business? Craig will share his perspective through the lens of the history of National Service Industries, one of Atlanta's earliest highly successful Jewish-owned companies. Rabbi Lebow will also share words of wisdom on how Jewish teachings can guide us in our professional lives. Light refreshments will be served.
