What is a Mensch?
A mensch is a noble, decent and reliable person, sensitive to other people’s needs and seeking ways out to help them. Mensches listen, with both brain and heart. They don’t disparage others to lift themselves. In fact, the core feature of a mensch is elevating others.Certifications
