== The Structure of Chabad Leadership ==
Under the Alter Rebbe’s leadership, Chabad Chassidus became known for its unique structure and emphasis on intellectual and emotional refinement. The Alter Rebbe established a system of ''mashpi’im'' (spiritual mentors) who were responsible for guiding individuals in their personal service of Hashem. These ''mashpi’im'' were tasked with teaching Chassidus and ensuring that each Chossid internalized its teachings in a way that transformed their character and elevated their service.

Additionally, the Alter Rebbe encouraged his Chassidim to engage in ''avodas ha’tfila'' (the service of prayer), emphasizing the importance of davening with deep concentration and heartfelt devotion. He taught that through prayer, a person could connect with Hashem in a profound and personal way, allowing the teachings of Chassidus to penetrate their heart and soul.
