Leah Ann Kleinfeldt's position has been eliminated. family will remain in Detroit. '1 know every inch of this build- ing and 98 percent of the em- ployees," she said. "I'm glad I had the opportunity to work here, but I'm leaving with a lot of sadness. "I wouldn't have left on my own, but I believe there will be other opportunities. I feel like ifs time to move in another direc- tion." Ms. Kleinfeldt came to De- troit from Memphis six years ago to work under Dr. Morton Plot- nick, who was the executive di- rector at the time. In March 1995, Dr. Plotnick left his post as head of the JCC to focus his efforts on fund-raising for the multimillion- dollar agency. "We're putting too many hours into administration." — David Sorkin Ms. Kleinfeldt took over, su- pervising the JCC's day-to-day operations under the title of as- sociate executive director. Four months later she was promoted to executive director, but by the end of 1995 she announced plans to step down. She left the top position for the No. 2 slot last July when Mr. Sorkin, the former director of the JCC in Wilmington, Del., took over. Dr. Plotnick, who hired Ms. Kleinfeldt as his assistant, said given the positioning of the agency, he is not surprised by the decision to let her go. "Leah Ann has done a tremen- dous job during her time here," Dr. Plotnick said. "She is very ca- pable, and I think she will be missed in the system." Other JCC staff deferred com- ment to Mr. Sorkin. But some JCC employees expressed sad- neSs over Ms. Kleinfeldt's im- pending departure. Some said they were surprised a formal no- tice was not sent to the staff, and others said they were unaware she was leaving. ❑ Here's Your Holida Bonus.
