When a military ocean happens to retired

Promotion

87

The December 18, 2010 was the farewell ceremony to promote 87 officers of the Polytechnic School, who became the honorable retired after thirty-three years of service. 60 promotion also was fifty years of graduates.

parting words were given by Brigadier General Eduardo Álvarez Manuel Morales who on behalf of all the soldiers that make up the Army of Guatemala, said following:

"We are family, come from the same mold, as soldiers have shared experiences, we know and understand us so I think through my speech today both say goodbye we, as those celebrating their golden wedding with the nation, relive their youth and renew their commitment axiological with it.

military life is unique and unparalleled, there are many experiences and challenges from young beardless face and resolve, with complete awareness of how hard; but filling our hearts with songs, always ready to fall and rise.

In the life of every soldier there are two moments that are crucial, critical and unforgettable first is when we abandon our families to enter an extremely demanding environment, disciplined and sometimes exhausting.

Only those with true vocation of soldiers to survive as men of honor, feel compelled to practice a life dominated by the virtue, reason, the sacrifice and the lack of material goods.

Multiple tests are presented in the way each is tempering our character, is forming our thinking and will give meaning to our philosophy of life.

Because only those who risk their lives, leaving their best years in the battlefield and who quietly swallowed the resentment of the insults, understand that the most valuable thing a man possesses is life.

That this only happens once we and therefore we must seize it, so that we do not weigh years lived, the shame of a wretched past and we mean no burning and dying can say: I have devoted my entire life and all my strength to the most beautiful in the world, to defend my country.

Our families suffer forever, our absence, the uncertainty of our destiny, the conviction that we must learn to be self-sufficient for the guidance and strength rarely home is present. Our wives and our children learn to survive, to be strong and radiate that strength to the household head for this never falter.

Over time you learn that a soldier is not an absolute concept. is relative to the person who looks at him, surrounding him, according to his way of thinking, depending on when you look at it.

No matter the concept, the life we \u200b\u200bhave experienced intensely so appreciate very well, the meaning of a heartbreaking goodbye, a hug, a tender kiss , a distant mother, a girlfriend desired, a withered flower, faded portrait a letter written with tears and full of promise, a rictus of pain, a song full of memories, a sleep under a tree, a sweet dream .... just a dream, to the smoke of a cigarette, a repressed desire, a day and a distant hope, as soldiers know hunger, fatigue, thirst a kiss, the heat of the powder and the cold of death.

Among our most valuable treasure forever those cards will be handwritten by the small hands of a girl or a boy, saying how proud that feel of having a soldier as a father and to attach a photo to never pass anything wrong. That is and will always supply power to all who wear the military uniform.

Along the way we learned to overcome the failures with new challenges, will bury the losses and sowing hope, imagining that one day that child will hear our story and inspired her to begin to forge their own.

Today every one of you can share those stories, to move its experience, take that sage advice that will guide and example to help build a better country.

Its footprint is marked in this noble institution that today says thanks and is this the second time crucial, critical and memorable that he spoke at first.

Return to our home, to the house that we never had. warfare, dared tired and despite all the sorrow today at the end of his military career with the faces marked by the wrinkles of experience and winning smile everyone can say was not in vain.

Promotion 60

Promotion Our old 60 here, those who carry their gray dignity and treasure years lived, can attest, that the challenge now is to keep a sense of things. Found hope in God our Lord does not disappoint, maintaining faith in the midst of the ephemeral with the absolute conviction that the eight words engraved in gold letters on the walls of our school are the values \u200b\u200b axiological that have marked our course and prevail in our lives forever.

They taught us that not material goods that make the man, his works are and work is done when we serve, when teach by example, when selfless sacrifice time, facilities, property, health and life for our nation.

promotion Farewell 87 and the golden jubilee of the promotion 60 in a single act show us that the soldiers of yesterday and today are the same, that the passage of time is only that because as I said: what prevails, what endures in our hearts even though the body betrays us, is love of country.

My old, thanks for your effort, dedication, education and sacrifice. On behalf of those who preceded us and we're still with his boots on, tell them soon, because here, where and in the condition it is, will always be soldiers. May God bless you and your families, successes and move on, thank you very much ".

elPeriodico in the newspaper of December 22, 2010 said Edgar Gutierrez:

There is reasonable doubt about the strategic scope of the operation. There are three Issues to consider:

1. The actual capacity of the Army in combat, supplies and weapons,

2. The provision of security circles to contain the diaspora of Los Zetas, and

3. The state of security and justice apparatus to support the enforcement activities.

Did people expect to see captured kinds of great stature, Barbados or the like, or why only Ladino may be the heads of the mushrooms?

During the internal armed conflict, the guerrillas were humble people, mostly indigenous, that their appearance would seem harmless "boys", but the ideology was strong, these "boys" and also called Ms. Montoya was able to priming and detonating charges in acts of sabotage, not to mention presenting a frontal attack against military units.

The Coban may have captured the look that says Ms. Montoya, but if the Zetas were recruited, they are qualified and have a charge.

If a Guatemalan soldier he should not be dismissed by their appearance in terms of efficiency in carrying out its function, not a criminal.

What So Psychologists Make

Internet, beyond the "materialism" teaching Digital Delivery

Normally when we talk about Internet, we are certain to discuss teaching materials or school furniture. But the Internet, besides being an artifact, a tool or an instrument of the Network Society, set up an educational environment, ie a large scale that accommodates the subject and the set of actions and interactions that affect their learning while building their identity as person. Therefore, Internet use is not to add new educational material, using the Internet is to deploy actions in a social, cultural and technologically enriched.

me explain. When we think about the educational use of Internet-on education with ICT or eLearning-opens an array of relentless questions: why learn?, What to learn?, How to learn, how to learn?, " how well do they learn?, when do you learn? or with whom to learn? (This last I will later), but the question where to learn? -rarely claimed the world face by its "invisibility" as it is assumed per se physical place with Internet acquires another dimension, a non-place, a new scope to learn, think, do and feel. Beyond

see the Internet as a sophisticated educational materials must be understood as an authentic environment where we stayed for learning and teaching. So when we wonder where to learn? the response that we raise the Internet is not teaching material, the response that the Internet offers is the handling of technologically enriched environment for learning. And this we have many examples, such as videos that can be seen below.

With the previous insistence borders are not looking code and put flags virtual territory, or education, but educational attention on the educational opportunities it offers us understand the Internet as an environment, and thinking about education from this condition, beyond the concept of material wealth didáctico.La is that in these virtual environments are not only things or objects, people moving, talking, cooperating, playing, discussing, doing ... Major reason to understand that it is not material.

Where is the courage to think the Internet as a learning environment? Taking Internet as an environment is to understand that the Internet is part of the explanation and learning development. In research we do to understand what added the technological component virtual cooperative learning, it was concluded, roughly, that "the virtual technology, by modulating the flow of interaction as an asynchronous communication system in writing, added to the basic form cooperation an array of temporal and spatial representation from which students reshape their opportunities and strategies at the time of learning in virtual training team. " In other research that sought to analyze the spatial character ¬ virtua environments of learning will "demonstrate the presence and sense space in the use of new technologies on the basis of precisely the type of use or activity that takes place there. "

therefore act must not forget that the Internet is to act on the internet and therefore defined or enhanced by the characteristics, handling and feeling of immersion that configures the virtual environment . When we are learning and teaching with the Internet we are acting with all the warp sociotechnológical that means being housed in virtuality.

As an example of what I argue here some examples where you can see what people do in these environments

Yesterday Society Network has given birth to a robust " knowledge center for education technology ."

The proud father of project is the International Centre for Advanced Technologies , CITA, the Foundation Ruipérez Germain Sanchez. We his friends, very happy, we only celebrate and to echo the happy news.

however is not the first child. In this connection Network Society and the CITA and there is a large litter. In this new reality, the project-there must be others that excite me much, as Digital Library, the Knowledge Cases or videoconferences with science.

But do not deceive us with technology, the latter of the CITA web service there are so many ideas, efforts and enthusiasm devoted to education. This is a space educational trends.

Among its sections can be highlighted to demonstrate best practice regarding the use of ICT in education, research, reports, articles and reviews. Well his "toolbox" dedicated to providing access to many tools to improve education infovirtuales.

But besides this structured information I think the value added by this Center is its ability to focus people and give answers. For this, it has sections devoted to the interaction with experts and professionals in the technologies applied to education, resources for disseminating information as news or educational Digg . All this in a public, open and free network, as it should be.

That is, it is a web environment is essential for professionals who want to know and recognize others in this task of educating with and ICT. I invite you, come and see the baby.

not see the forest for Internet

is one of those books that reminds that education is much more than the classroom, between education and society there is more than a statistical correlation or the technology is still a variable of the process, a condition of learning, but not the bottom line.

" Educational Justice and Economic Justice: 12 theses for educational change "of Rosa Maria Torres (Faith and Joy, 2005), there is a new book, does not have to be, but check back with interest stated for not wanting technophilia understand and technophobia in education, I come to conclusion that the two positions, for better or worse, they try to see the tree not the forest.

Without lowering the thesis background of the book to criticize the current social in Latin America that focuses on alleviating poverty rather than focusing on the development, his twelve theses remind us that more powerful is the engine, the educational problems involve the same dimensions that explain the society, the individual and their relationships. Too complex to leave this to a debate between phobia and philia technology.

is not the same change and revolution in education, the truly revolutionary in education today means the technology, if it is necessary but not sufficient. Therefore we must not miss the forest: the education is explained and woven into a multitude of variables which, however, technology is influential but not decisive.

As I was telling a friend, technology offers us a good excuse to rethink education, which is nothing else to think about other variables.

These variables, as the 12 theses, can be a good memory aid for not neglecting the holistic vision that ultimately must prevail in the analysis and educational activities.

1. Poverty alleviation, development.

2. As education sector policy, education and cross-sectoral policy.

3. The dominance of economic criteria, with a broader perspective of the educational question.

4. International aid to a genuine international cooperation.

5. From school, to education.

6. The right to education, the right to quality education.

7. The right to access, the right to learning.

8. The right to learn, the right to learn throughout life.

9. School, the community of learning.

10. Teacher training, the teacher issue.

11. Basic education as school education, basic education and citizenship education.

12. To adapt to change, to influence the change.

, 2025 Questions

"When had all the answers they changed the questions, "says a popular decision, as reported by Galeano, I used to present the idea to fund a study on the future of the Internet in 2025. Interesting is an adjective with which you may qualify to study, but it is more appropriate to speak of prospective and as such, valuable to estimate the complexity of the dynamics of the Network Society is not a speculative exercise or practice palmist, of one who seeks to guess what will happen with the Internet, and then see if the predictions match, much less. It is rather to be aware of current responses and change the questions.

This study, prepared by Cisco and GBN has been led by Enrique Rueda Sabater and translated into English thanks to sponsorship from Telefónica Foundation . Like all serious prospective study, its not released METHODOLOGY of futurology, but rather to decide the cases in which support the vision for the future: five questions, three axles and four scenarios where trendsetters.

The study plated five questions for 2025:

Most of the growth in the Internet market have had place outside the countries that now have economies "advanced."

global Internet governance will remain virtually unchanged.

The manner in which the "digital natives" will relate to Internet will be significantly different from previous generations.

The current keyboard is not the primary Internet interface.

The ways in which consumers will pay to connect to the Internet vary widely.

Three axes of uncertainty:

What will the global broadband network, both its length and capacity-in 2025?

Does the technology advance with spectacular achievements or have a more modest and gradual progress?

How Internet-related companies and individuals and how they evolve their preferences?

Four usage scenarios to 2025

01. 'Pulsating': The technology came to save the world (technological optimism )

02. 'Unsafe': The Internet is a place full of dangers (more segmented society)

03. 'Disappointing': The crisis continues 15 years later (victim of the economic slump)

04. 'Overwhelmed': The network dies, a victim of its own success (victim of saturation and own success).

In general, the various dimensions of society, including education, will have to pay more attention to a couple of ideas of this research product forecasting:

• Internet in the future will be more extensive than it is today and will have even greater impact on society, as is becoming truly global and happens to be a phenomenon of rich countries and big cities to be part of everyday life even in towns and rural areas of all countries ... and as the "generation network "comes to positions of influence.

• do not know what will be the outcome, but we expect that Internet will evolve into forms that will surprise us. Using imagination and method for exploring future scenarios and test our reactions to different outcomes, not only will we be better prepared for any future world, but we can also influence its trajectory.

Security Challenges: The capture of a State

The security threat today overwhelms countries. Basically revolves around the threat of organized criminal gangs. These bands are not looking to come to power through armed struggle in the style of that time was the "communist threat" during the Cold War era in which groups at least openly declared his intention while operating from hiding.

Organized crime seeks the total power, total control, in a much more subtle and dangerous because it seeks to penetrate the institutions, to take control of them for their own illegal purposes, creating real networks impunity.

This affected the institutions of the States. The institutions are represented in key organizations that through their act provides and maintains an established order to achieve development, public service and safety citizens.

All institutions are exposed to this threat. But there is some evidence identify attacks or attempts to control the institutions.

Organized crime plan actions against the institutions responsible for providing security in the States, are more or less a process as follows:

DISPERSING

DIVIDE

INFILTRATED

CORRUPT

DISCREDIT

The dispersion promote it when influencing criminal groups in areas - usually political - to open multiple locations in a geographic area to exercise control, but without considering that the institution has little effect (number of elements) and without adequate equipment to deal with illegal armed groups if they have shielded means of mobility, firepower and communications . And dispersing a force in clear disadvantaged status, making it weakens inoperative in order to fulfill its mission.

Organized crime also seek influence through political means to deny the allocation of financial resources to enable adequate equipment, in the face of the threat to the security so efficient. The institution is present everywhere but unable to operate.

criteria within the leadership of the institution regarding this situation are diverse. There is a risk of forming a misunderstanding and lack of certainty about whether the controls are aware of the real situation. This begins to create gossip and consequently the "internal division" due to lack of information. An institution that is divided is becoming vulnerable. The accomplishment of the tasks becomes more difficult because of the precarious logistics, equipment and means of training.

training, values \u200b\u200band morals of the members of the institution is one of the main weapons to fight the division. Similarly, the confidence in the controls. Clarify whether it is not unfair or attitude needs to be ignored, but the clear influence of organized crime in environments outside the institution, seeking to further their criminal plans (if any). The division is produced in a high percentage of lack of such information.

The next step of organized crime is infiltrating the institution. Organised crime commissioning persons to hold positions in the institution to infiltrate or promote appointments at all levels to contribute to the criminal plans. Used extortion, threats or bribery to locate "parts" key to illegal purposes. Another way to infiltrate the purchase of information to anticipate the operations of institutions that seek to counteract the threat to security.

As a result of the increase of people infiltrated by the gangs and the increase of illegal acts committed by members of the institution in fulfilling its obligations the institution corrupts. An institution is corrupted when it has lost its credibility and respect for the society it serves, because its members, individually or collectively, have no concern for being perceived as corrupt. It is also characterized because it is very difficult to ascertain the facts to assign responsibility for the criminal.

The attack on the institution was consolidated with the decertification of its members and leaders. Use of slander, libel and rumor. Infiltrates play an important role in misrepresenting facts disclosing information to mean speeding the wrong conclusion in public.

anonymous publications corruption may also discredited. The decertification weakens and leads to the failure of the institution, its inefficiency and lack of productivity.

Rescue institutionalism is a phrase that means that the company regain confidence in their institutions.

Rescuing the institutional framework is the responsibility of each member of the institution to fulfill its duties honestly and properly. Apply the concept of principles and values \u200b\u200bin group that is, the mistake or committed an illegal act at all. Unity of effort and unity to achieve conceptual mission, using criticism to improve and the available technology, will make a difference despite the limitations. Follow this guide work shows an "attitude" adequate to accomplish the mission while the institution adequately equipped.

The political will to solve a national problem can be determined by the priority with which financial resources are allocated to obtain means for the institutions.

CONSENSUS BUILDING AND CONFLICT RESOLUTION IN THE BOARDS OF NGOS

By: Julian Salas Luis Rodas

Sociologist. Specialist and Master in Social Sciences
Foundation Executive Director Human Welfare

A board is a team under the leadership of a president (a) has as its main objective the strategic direction of the organization in charge. Forming a team involves establishing a structure, some functions, some roles and responsibilities. In the case of NGOs for their boards of directors must respond to time, fulfilling a dual responsibility: to ensure compliance with organizational mission and generating sufficient resources for sustainability and empowerment.

about conflict theories argue that it is inherent in human relationships as expressed conflicting interests and motivations. The conflict is destructive and negative when it meets a violent or decisions are imposed, a party to the other. The conflict is positive and desirable, when encouraged to change, when you transform and resolve situations peacefully. Conflict is a powerful incentive to shake the sterile routine and immobility that often fall on the boards for lack of leadership and motivation.

The consensus can be understood as a collective action, conscious and deliberate, to set aside individual interests to come together in a common interest. Without denying or avoiding conflict, building consensus and maintaining the practice is more democratic and healthy that a board may establish, provides both cohesion social affirmation and gives corporate identity to the guild and society, but not always possible to establish consensus nor prevent the harmful effects of a poorly resolved conflict on a board. Let us, then some of the risks for such situations arise:

• No clear boundaries between government and administration

In principle administrative theory indicates that the main role of a board as an organ of government is to govern and not manage. The board sets policies, sets guidelines, calls to account, have control. The administration, the head of the executive management, organize the work as teams, assigns responsibilities, mobilizes resources, monitors and evaluates projects, establishing contacts, alliances, does public relations. In the early days of an organization is essential that the board shares administrative tasks with the executive management. As time passes and strengthens the organization is essential to establish agreements between the board and management of those functions that remain shared, which correspond to the board and what to executive management. If this is not explicitly defined will be a permanent source of interference and conflict between them.

• North than in defining the strategic direction.

The strategic direction involves the principles of strategic management have been learned and incorporated in most NGOs. While exercises are performed addressing design and review and formulation of strategic and operational plans, NGOs are still weak in implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the latter. The strategic direction should not be task and responsibility of the board but a joint exercise with executive management and staff. If the definition being and to make the organization is only responsibility of the board can not presume to be shared and respected by the rest of the organization.

From top to bottom and from bottom to top, the definition of strategic management must be an exercise of democratic governance that ensures the exchange of opinions, concepts, dreams and aspirations. The participation of all legitimate and guarantees a horizon of meaning, one north to guide the direction of the organization. Can coexist not windy, otherwise the risk of loss and the occurrence of unnecessary conflicts between agencies that are struggling to impose its own northern openly or evening.

• Incompatibility of characters between the president (a) and director (a) Executive (a)

President (a) is the highest authority on the board. In his successful election and the results depend on commitment of the team. Is he or she who must be aware of the preparation and conduct of meetings. From his knowledge of the organization, leadership and emotional intelligence and social skills or not depends on the board to focus on your work and add value to the organization. Director (a) Executive (a) depends on the development of the mission expressed in plans, programs and projects, which run the team of employees and workers linked to the organization. It is the responsibility of the director (a) accountable to the President (a) and the full Board. Among them, the president (a) and director (a), there must be respect for the powers of each and a fluid and ongoing communication. Must have a shared leadership. Must share and bear witness to others of the same identity of mission, vision, principles and organizational policies. If identities are opposite, if disrespectful, if there is interference with the powers, if there are breakdowns in communication or recurrent clashes board meetings, organizational climate is affected, giving way to struggles for power involving divisions and factions among board members. If the inconsistency is extreme or evening, the board, in full, you must decide who stays and who goes ...

• Lack of internal regulations of the board or opt

The statutes set out the structure and general rules to regulate and observe the different levels of the organization. The regulations, however, regulate specific issues and the operation of each estate. The regulations shall contain provisions concerning the functions of the President (a), director (a) Executive (a) and secretary (a); conformation committees, decision making, subject to the matters discussed, conflicts of interest, submission of proposals, as a member loss, rotation and retention of members and non-regulated materials. Without rules the president (a) and the board are likely to resolve internal issues apparently taking only subjective or situational appropriateness. The advantage of a regulation is to avoid customization in decision making and conflict resolution. The regulations should be noted incompatibilities, prohibitions and penalty procedures. The rule is one more document, is to enforce it in cases warranted. The regulation must be known, approved by all board members, subject to periodic update.

• Putting personal interests to the board and the organization.

NGOs serving the common good and with the assistance of other stakeholders like the state and private companies build and maintain public goods of a country, such as justice, security, information, access to health, education, employment, housing and a healthy environment. NGOS human change, positive social change, are the expression of altruistic values and work within the framework of respect for human rights, have political influence to the extent that pressure and mobilize public authorities for the solution of social and community problems.

We said that the form boards and, as such persons are subject to the expression of emotions, attitudes, feelings and behaviors that depend, in turn, in different personality structures. Ambition, arrogance, pride, desire for representation, disrespect, lying, addiction to power, the malicious comments, obtaining profits and lack of commitment and ownership may give rise situations of unrest, division and strife among board members. Like the organization, the board has also its own organizational culture, which can help or hinder individual or group performance. Adverse weather, difficult to build and maintain consensus, preventing communication open, honest and effective, producing a loss of interest, generate unfeasible desertions and teamwork. There must be consistency and ethics between values \u200b\u200band higher principles of the organization and conduct of board members who will, always put their personal interests to those of the board and the organization. The board can not ignore, underestimate, or allow a conflict of interest are resolved in favor of a member against herself and the organization. In other words: not explicitly and who puts personal interests to those of the organization should resign ...

• The authoritarian exercise of power as destroyer of consensus.

As in all human relationships is a latent conflict, so is the authoritarian exercise of power. The boards of NGOs are not free of abuse of power either by an autocratic president, an autocratic executive management or a certain group of board members. For example the credit and recognition to the founder, who serves as president (a) or director (a) perpetual, or certain members Principals can not lead to thinking and acting as the sole owners of the organization. When this happens, the board becomes a formal entity that transgress their rights and that only serves to save face with statutory law and society.

The statutes establish a process of rotation and retention of board members is a good antidote to prevent authoritarian exercise of power. The boards are holders of a fiduciary by the state and society at both the capital and the assets of NGOs not owned by its founders, to its corporations, its partners and members but to the community, its very raison d'être. The authoritarian exercise of power is inconsistent with the construction and maintenance of consensus at a meeting, the consensus can only come and stay when they apply the principles of democratic governance, free expression and discussion of ideas of transparency, trust, respect, good treatment and the possibility of any member elected by peers as President (a) of the board.

If consensus against a particular situation is not possible because of the extreme divergence of views or interests, then vote secret is the right way to settle the conflicto.La majority prevails and the minority will apparently accept the verdict and continue to give up the resistance. It is in these situations where it gets a test of leadership and wisdom of President (a) of the board.

is therefore a matter of a board of an NGO that lead to identify risks and prevent destructive conflict and the continued building of consensus. The diligent attention to this task will depend on both its good performance as his integrity and image to the rest of the organization and society.

C BASIC CRITERIA FOR STRENGTHENING THE BOARDS IN THE NGO

By: Julian Salas Luis Rodas

-Strengthening: urgent action

external demands as a result of changes in relations with the state, aid agencies and communities, require modernization in the design and implementation of social management of NGOs. This task can not be done If the governing bodies and senior management of NGOs, do not take their commitment and responsibility to change, resistant attitudes aside. Continue postponing a decision in this regard, is to go against the sustainability of organizations.

In the last decade of the twentieth century, NGOs began building processes in order to qualify the social and administrative management. In Antioquia, the Corporation and the Federation PAISAJOVEN Antioquia NGOs, undertook to design and carry out institutional strengthening programs to member organizations. This offer has been directed mainly to train and qualify the Executive Offices and equipment operating in accordance with specific demands, but the boards have not been included as a target group, therefore there is no structured and systematic. Hence, it is mandatory for inclusion in the plans and agendas of institutional strengthening.

-should be a participatory and non-coercive change

participatory change in an organization is one that involves, through motivation, persuasion and consensus, individuals and groups in the transformation of attitudes and behaviors to improve performance and corporate results. Coercion and imposition, since up, get results fast but short-lived. Only participatory change and tangible sustainable successes achieved in the long term.

-knowledge and reflection are a prerequisite participatory

Knowledge and participatory reflection are the first moment of the action with the seals, are the "hook" that lets you start the process of institutional strengthening. Depending on the dynamics and organizational culture of each Board, their duration and degree of difficulty, but the purpose is not only learning new skills and social skills and managerial members of the Board, but the achievement of personal change in attitudes and behaviors that lead to change group of the full Board.

group's slow pace of change is predictable, given its difficulty and time to be perceived. Only by maintaining high motivation and support, you can get results. (See illustration)

participatory change as a process involves a sequence of actions in time, each with a greater degree of difficulty and complexity. The following illustration shows the process forward. (See illustration)

- Knowledge and participatory reflection should focus on strategic issues

The results of research on the boards and leadership styles PAISAJOVEN NGO members identified priority areas of work under:

-knowledge about the mission and responsibilities of NGOs .
-knowledge about the social sector.
-training and training in handling groups and meetings.
-Efficient time.
-Training and technical assistance in developing institutional poli-cies.
-training and advice in the formulation of strategic and operational plans for the Board.
-Training and skills training for conflict management and negotiation.
-Training in information management accounting, legal, financial, contracting with the state and national and international cooperation.
-training and self-monitoring processes for the management of the Board.
-specific advice in selection, induction and motivation of new members to the organization and the Board.
-training knowledge and skills to generate "value added" of the Board to the organization, and improve the performance of its members and democratic governance.

- planning and consultation: strengthening success factors

Consistent with the adoption of a participatory model of change, working with the Boards should be planned and agreed with them, according to its general and specific objectives and availability of time and resources. The planning involves scheduling activities, setting objectives and targets, pre-stop logistics as well as tools for monitoring and evaluation. The agreement means agreeing issues, priorities, schedules and resources.

While planning and coordination are tasks that require considerable time and patience, can not be ignored in any way if you want to achieve success in management.

- should generate added value

participatory change should re-orient and resize the new role that they have to take to the boards to ensure the sustainability and the reason for the organizations. To the extent that the process of training and skills add new knowledge, reflection and skills to the Board members will alter its attitudes and behaviors.

value added has to do with the timeliness, efficiency and effectiveness in strategic decision making and the formulation of clear and consistent, that point north to the executive management and operational team.

- is the opportunity to renew the social and human development of its members

Outreach as a volunteer member of an NGO means the possibility to express authentic human values \u200b\u200bsuch as solidarity, cooperation, philanthropy and the call to serve others. These values \u200b\u200bare the essential hallmark of the mission of NGOs in the world. This recognition means, at present, a serious commitment of the members of the boards to the state, society and the users of the programs. No longer enough "Wanting to do well." It is not enough to spend a few hours a week or month to the Board to meet the demands of modernity. NGOs require Boards Directives competent and qualified members.

Institutional strengthening of the boards will allow members the opportunity to renew its social commitment, knowing that their personal actions will help create a more just, democratic and equitable.

- Offer should consider strengthening the legal status of members of the Board members

Supply building must meet specific requirements, depending on the type of member partners: natural, workers, family or institutional. (See Article 11 of this book: What to do with partners and members of NGOs?)

- Qualify styles, improve flexibility and leadership effectiveness

is important to pay attention and focus on qualifying the is-lime, improve flexibility and effectiveness of the leadership of people in leadership positions in line of authority of the organization, especially the Presidency and the Executive Directorate. This strengthening should facilitate the formation of a shared leadership in organizations where there is none, and strengthen it where it already exists. Such action would enhance democratic governance and collective performance of the Board
