1. For two years, I have been part of AIESEC Romania and have witnessed the amazing
things it does. Just from my example, it took a mediocre student with no future perspectives and
pushed him into doing and learning things he never thought possible. From commuting a few
days each week from one city to another just to be part of AIESEC, to founding and leading
AIESEC in his hometown, just after a few months of experience.This story isn’t just mine, I was
just one other actor, because people before me, people who I worked with in EBs and LC and
so many other people in AIESEC Romania did the same things. They invested, they pushed
themselves and proved that impossibility is just another challenge to overcome and they still do
it time and time again, just to make sure we develop amazing people who will have that positive
impact in society we need so bad.
So my strategy (just like this organization) is all about the people – AIESEC Romania’s
members who deserve an organization that fully supports them, their needs and their ambitions
and that challenges them to grow beyond their limitations.
My goal is to show the country the relevance and impact of the Alumni Development area and
educate it on how to use it in order to contribute to our organizational goals.
My first focus is on AIESEC Romania developing the H4TF Program by implementing
this stage in every LC with the main focus on quality of delivery, allignment between
members personal goals and the organizational goals and also make sure that our
results are officially recognized in the external market. All this in order to make sure that
this stage is a relevant objective for members in their development, provide a complete
AIESEC Experience for members and help them understand and leverage their AIESEC
experience so that we can create real values for the external market which can become
those true change agents we keep talking about.
My sencond focus area is Alumni Engagement strategy for creating a collaborative
environment between AIESEC and its Alumni by continuing this term’s work on Communication,
Reconnection and Involvement. We need to make them understand that the AIESEC
experience exists and can be relevant even when they are Alumni and also show the external
market that our organization produces real values.
Thirdly, by doing extensive research, developing products based on revenue generators
for different segments and actually implementing them, we can create products which
generate revenue for our organization based on our alumni.
By having a chance to implement this whole strategy with the help of the LCs, MC and NST, the
Alumni Development area can use its full potential and deliver the results which will drive
AIESEC Romania into achieving its goals and the 2015 Mid Term Ambition.
AIESEC’s finality or end purpose as an organization is creating Alumni. They are the
ones who become change agents and fulfill our vision of “peace and fulfillment of humankind’s
potential”.
