       Leadership  may  be  innate  in  some  people,          or bowling with the members of Association.
       however in order to be able to exercise it in any
       space it is necessary to know what is being led,
       as well as being trained to generate capacities
       and skills.

       In  line  with  the  goal  of  training  leaders  in
       community  service,  some  of  the  national
       associations implemented structured education
       plans that sought to publicize the Organization
       and  its  standards  through  lectures,  education
       councils  and  informational  caps.  It  also  was
       looking to generate space to meet the partners
       through the creation of biographies.

       In  Panama,  with  the  capsules  “Did  you  know
       what?”,  and  in  Colombia,  with  the  informative
       capsules distributed through the mail and social
       networks, they generated enriching information
       for the new and more experienced partners.

       In Mexico, 86 biographies of its partners were
       elaborated  and  disseminated,  seeking  to                                              15
