How important it is to keep all staff motivated and focused. I think it is essential to start from the point where everyone knows their relevance on the path towards the goal, the success of the students, and to remain consistent on that path. At my university, we have implemented peer mentoring, but we still need strategies to motivate more mentors to participate. Are you implementing any?

I loved the guidelines for better addressing orientations. Human contact is very important for establishing a bond with the students.

I see the importance of building strategies to prevent dropout due to stress. We should think about activities that help students strengthen their internal resources to cope with stress through mindset, support networks, and of course, aligning with all staff on values. Have any of you implemented any strategies that you would recommend in higher education?

One of the things I learned is to have greater awareness of the effects and impact of dropping out of school and how necessary it is to act from the beginning, such as identifying risks, but also in raising awareness of the institution. Likewise, the fundamental role that all university officials have. I want to put into practice improving our risk identification system and work with my team to see strategies and attitudes, including being more proactive.
