Useful things Learned from CBO visit

My useful two things of focusing on goal and making decision those I learned from visiting CBOs to use in my organization in the future. First of all, I have learned their focusing on their goal. In fact, according IRC director Dr. Naing said that “we do not accept every donors and follow their policy because we are focusing on our goal. It should be matched with our goal that we want to work for. In addition, they organize their structure in every sections for every people have a role to work in a group to reach their goal. For example, IRC (International Rescue Committee) has two sections, one is support program to arrange and manage for another section group that is called working program which people are working in the field. Those focusing our goal and divide each section to be clear reaching the goal are necessary for my organization to develop. So, it is helpful for me to bring to my organization and change into systematic way as they have used. Another one thing is making decision on the several cases of appearing. Most of organizations are used TOP decision. It means decision would be made EC (Executive Committee) because they have lots of members. However, a few organizations used flat structure to run and discus openly. Especially, there are a few members in an organization. For example, CP (Curriculum Project) is eight members in their organization. It is open discussion and got direct idea from every member to make decision. Since 2007, they have run so far, they achieved over 100 migrant schools to be sent their curriculum in Thailand. So, they have developed by working together. In this point, I can use this way for my organization when we have a few member but it will be challenging for a lot of member. Briefly, make decision and focusing goal are, I have learned in CBOs’ visiting will be useful for my organization in the future.
