Desde el año 2011 Mónica Cecilia Gonzalez, voluntaria activa y miembro de PMI Nuevo Cuyo, viene trabajando como Liaison de nuestro Capítulo para PMI Educational Foundation, la rama filantrópicade PMI. Las traducciones al español de varios materiales que realizó Mónica colaborando incluso con nuestro colega Francisco Herrera (Presidente del Capítulo PMI Sinaloa, México y Liaison de PMIEF) en la traducción de PM Nonprif Practicum,, no sólo se utilizan en nuestra región, sino que ya están siendo utilizados en varios países de habla hispana.

Cabe destacar que uno de los Directores de PMIEF, nuestro colega mexicano Roberto Toledo, está muy conforme con la excelente calidad de esas traducciones.

Nos complace compartir con ustedes las últimas novedades que ha publicado PMIEF a nivel internacional, donde se destaca el gran impacto de nuestros voluntarios a nivel mundial.

Cordialmente,

Pablo Lledó, PMP®

Member Highlight:

Extending PMIEF’s Reach through Collaboration  

 Sometimes the action you take to assist your immediate network and community can simultaneously impact others beyond your region, or even country. PMIEF Liaison Monica Gonzalez from the PMI Nuevo Cuyo chapter has witnessed this multiplier effect over the past couple of months.

Monica has translated several of PMIEF’s materials from English into Spanish for use in her community. Her outreach efforts touched her chapter members as well those employed and benefiting from the nonprofit organization where she conducted trainings.

Looking to go into greater depth during her trainings, Monica requested permission to translate

the PM Nonprofit Practicum, a longer course for nonprofit organizations. Upon learning that PMI Sinaloa, Mexico Chapter’s president and PMIEF Liaison, Francisco Herrera, was already engaged in the translation process for this resource, Monica offered to collaborate with Francisco. The Spanish version of the practicum should be available for PMI members to download in the next few months.

Monica also volunteered to translate our marketing flyers into Spanish, with the intent of sharing them with the local community.  However, within a matter of weeks, the Spanish translations were traveling across international borders into Mexico where PMIEF Board Member, Roberto Toledo represented PMIEF at the PMI Mexico City Chapter’s Professional Development Day (PDD).

Roberto noted that the translations that Monica, Francisco and other volunteers have provided were a pleasant and welcome surprise to the PDD attendees and underscored the global focus of PMIEF.

As Monica reflects, «I’m very glad that my translations have been used in various locations, it is wonderful that PMI members can collaborate and work together through the Foundation.»
