Dalia Korkin, CEO and partner in the Amal and Beyond Group, told the Globes Kibbutz Growth Conference about her journey from being a treasurer in the poor Kibbutz Ramot Menashe to managing a company that was listed at a valuation of 2.6 billion shekels. Korkin, who rarely gives interviews, spoke with Avi Benayahu, who revealed at the start of the meeting that he has been serving as her and the company's advisor for several years. She described her childhood in Kibbutz Ramot Menashe, which was "one of the poorest in the kibbutz movement," and her work as a treasurer during a severe economic crisis. "Every week I had to find a way to bring money and survive and give milk to the children," she said. Later, she left the kibbutz at age 40 to experience a different way of life. The company, which started as a small manpower provider to kibbutzim, absorbed the nursing systems of five kibbutzim and expanded. In November 2025, Amal Holdings was listed at a valuation of about 2.64 billion shekels. Korkin sold shares worth about 185 million shekels in the listing. In the second quarter of 2026, the company reported revenues of about 577 million shekels, but net profit fell by about 8% to 33.9 million shekels. Korkin dedicated part of the conversation to a joint venture with the Kibbutz Movement to establish a national center for resilience and fortitude at Ramat Ef'al, which will treat post-traumatic IDF soldiers.
