Dear reader, If you are opening this application with a feeling of determination, fear, insecurity and doubts, I humbly congratulate you for already having taken your first steps towards applying to become the next leader of AESEC in Norway.

Leading AIESEC in Norway is, and will always be, a privilege that will challenge you beyond any other position you have held. As MCP, you are responsible for building upon 70 years of legacy through developing your people, a promise that demands a lot of humility, courage and resilience day in and out. As challenging as it might sound, it is also what makes the experience a powerful, rewarding and purposeful journey. I invite you to reason your way through this application form and craft your proposal to serve. I sincerely wish you the best in your process and look forward reading your thoughts and dreams in your application. Are you ready to make a commitment, and take a leap of faith?
