Este documento discute el sacramento del matrimonio y la nulidad matrimonial desde una perspectiva católica. Argumenta que el matrimonio es un sacramento instituido por Dios que une a un hombre y una mujer de por vida. Reconoce que a veces el matrimonio falla debido a la falta de amor o compromiso, pero sostiene que el divorcio solo causa más dolor y que es mejor buscar formas de resolver los problemas familiares sin separarse. También habla sobre la importancia de prepararse adecuadamente para el matrimonio

LO ACOSTÓ EN UN PESEBRE
Is 9,1-3.5-6; Tt 2,11-14; Lc 2,1-14
El nacimiento de un hijo en la casa de los reyes de Judá era celebrado con gozo y solemnidad. El profeta Isaías nos regala un poema cargado de esperanza y optimismo. A través de una serie de títulos grandilocuentes (príncipe de la paz) y de grandes muestras de confianza: "se consolidará en la justicia y el derecho" se proclama el comienzo de un periodo nuevo. El niño es una promesa y una señal de la fidelidad de Dios, que jamás se desentiende de la causa de su pueblo. El recién nacido gobernará con sabiduría y acierto. En el Evangelio de san Lucas reaparece el motivo del recién nacido con un matiz novedoso: ya no es un niño rodeado de los privilegios del palacio, no lo custodian doncellas y nodrizas, no lo elogian los cortesanos del palacio. Sus padres son emigrantes que no disponen de bienestar. El niño nace en un pesebre —el dato se repite tres veces en el relato, señal de que tendrá su importancia— señalando así su condición de marginalidad. Efectivamente, Jesús vivirá como un judío marginal, hasta que el Padre lo haga participe de su gloria.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

IMPROVING NEGOTIATING OUTCOMES
The article under consideration entitled “Six Surprising Negotiation Tactics That Get You The Best Deal”
can be found at:
http://www.forbes.com/sites/work-in-progress/2013/12/05/six-surprising-negotiation-tactics-that-get-
you-the-best-deal/2/
Kristi Hedges wrote an article for Forbes magazine entitled Six Surprising Negotiation Tactics That Get
You The Best Deal in which she offers some insights on how to improve negotiating outcomes.
Langton, Robbins and Judge (2014) highlight two major forms of bargaining: distributive (the more
confrontational of the two which sees a fixed amount of resources being split up by parties with
uncommon interests) and integrative (where each party looks for ways to make not only themselves but
the other better off). The latter method sees each party’s primary interests as being “convergent or
congruent with each other”. Of the two forms, the textbook implies that integrative produces superior
outcomes. “Integrative bargaining . . . tends to provide outcomes that . . . build lasting relationships.”
(Langton, Robbins, & Judge, 2014, pp. 213, 214, 219)
In the win-lose climate of distributive bargaining, a person would be guarded and not willing to share
information. However, since lasting relationships can yield reciprocal benefits, it would be good to come
to the table with an open mindset and to view the other as a potential ally. Hedges recommends sharing
information as a way to engender trust and lay the groundwork for integrative outcomes. Interestingly,
the information shared doesn’t have to be related to the matter at hand. Merely sharing something of
yourself – personal concerns, interests or even hobbies – can create trust and improve dialogue. As the
author puts it: “If we want to be trusted, we must first offer it.” (Hedges, 2013)
Langton, Robbins and Judge (2014) communicate the importance of anticipating where the other party
sits in terms of their “target point” (best possible outcome), “resistance point” (lowest acceptable
outcome) and their “best alternative to a negotiated agreement”. Anticipation of these measures, they
say, need to be based on accurate information because misinformation can “make for worse bargaining
outcomes”. (Langton, Robbins, & Judge, 2014, p. 216) In her article, Hedges says that information is also
important when determining one’s own terms. Clarity as to the reasons for one’s own position makes
for better decisions at the negotiating table. Basing measures on “firm data” provides one with “more
confidence and power” and “reduces the chance that you’ll throw something crazy out there”. (Hedges,
2013)
The textbook highlights the importance of making the first offer during a negotiation. The authors
explained that people tend to “fixate on initial information” and “fail to adequately adjust” to new
information. They say that “such anchors greatly favour the person who sets them”. (Langton, Robbins,
& Judge, 2014, p. 214) Hedge’s article, however, points out that if you were not able to make the first
offer it is possible to protect oneself against the anchoring effect. Referring to Grant, the author talks
about “re-anchoring”. This involves staying true to the accurate information upon which your own
numbers were based, letting the other party know the impossibility of their offer and going “back in
with a new reset”. One final insight: even if the first offer meets your needs, it is best to ask for
concessions. This way you get a good deal and you also makes the other party feel as though they were
“driving a hard bargain” (otherwise you wouldn’t have asked for the concession). (Hedges, 2013)

RE: Summary Assignment
Hall, E.T. (1960). Silent Language. Harvard Business Review, 38(3), 87-96
In his “Language of Space” section of “The Silent Language in Overseas Business”, E.T. Hall (1960)
educates the American businessperson as to the cultural uses of space in communication. He thereby
helps his audience avoid the fruits of an uninformed self-assurance. This writing appeared in a journal
published for the illustrious Harvard Business School (Harvard Business Review, n.d.), where Hall taught
(Edward T. Hall, n.d). Furthermore, the author is credited with developing the study of “proxemics”,
which is strongly related to our reading’s content. While the particulars may be dated, the message is
not and we would do well to pay attention. To succeed, Hall says, one must unlearn paradigms (related
to the use of space in communication) and be alert to new behaviours and meanings. Failure to expand
in this way can result in unnecessary distortions. He illustrates this throughout by comparing what is
“known” or expected in America with differing realities elsewhere. For example, he shows how
Americans expect more “personal space” than people in the Middle East or Latin America. Simple
awareness of this difference can prevent one from misidentifying normal contact as aggressive
crowding. Hall also highlights differences as to where business dealings are held. Americans are quite
comfortable discussing business in social settings. However, in India there are clear boundaries around
the home space, where such discussions are considered unacceptable. The author also makes important
distinctions as to how location within space is equated with status or power. An American executive, he
says, would assume the top of a building to be a perch reserved for corporate elite. Not so in Japan!
There, the same might be used to sell discontinued goods! shows. Hall has shown us how presumptions
can cause misunderstandings and how we must avoid transposing the familiar landmarks of our own
“truths” onto newly travelled roads. This overarching theme can be applied to so many of life’s
circumstances.
