OUTGOING EXCHANGE

The Global Citizen Campaign Launch

By Onome Ahorituwere, AIESEC NEWS The Global Citizen Campaign was a marketingcampaign tagged as 6 Weeks for the world. It was designed for the purpose of sharing stories of those individuals who went on exchange from the 1st of July 2015 till today and to all use their stories as a means of inspiration to raise more people who are willing to also embark on the Leadership transformation journey through Exchange. Within the first month of the campaign, a total of 15 stories were published, discussions were held internally and also we hosted the Member Committee Vice President responsible for Incoming Global Community Development Program in Kenya in one of our discussions. An outcome of this campaign so far is the fact that leaders of our different Local Committee are more interested in the program and are more than ready to convince more people to go for exchange. However, the campaign still runs until the 31st December 2015 and by this time, we are hopeful to have matched at least 50 Exchange Participants (EPs) to different opportunities around the world waiting for

INCOMING GLOBAL COMMUNTY PROGRAM

Know what we do

By Derrick Stalker, AIESEC NEWS The incoming Global Community Development Program (iGCDP), is an opportunity for young people to develop entrepreneurial and responsible leadership by creating positive impact through volunteering abroad to challenge themselves to do something outside their comfort zone and experience living and working abroad with cross-cultural teams and families. The experiences range from 6 to 8 week. From the start of our term till date, we have delivered 127 leadership experiences plus contributed positively to the society in the 5 main regions where we operate (Dar es Salaam, Moshi, Arusha,Mwanza and Morogoro).

Volunteers or Exchange participants (EPs) worked on different project which strive to: •Improve literacy through working with teachers and local community members to achieve greater levels of literacy, •Eradicate poverty Supporting skills development and planning / capacity-building to help communities grow and trade their way out of poverty, •Improve Health & sanitation through working with local communities to improve sanitation and health to reduce disease.

In September 2015, I arrived in Tanzania. I had no idea what was waiting for me even though I had put effort into researching as much about the country as I could. I found a place that would surprise me every day. I met people of fantastic diversity and with life stories that touched me and taught me lot about hardships and overcoming difficulties, but also about loyalty towards family and friends. I saw the many aw-inspiring beauties of the country, its beaches and its landscapes. But the memory of ~Christain Kohnke Mendonca, the warm and welcoming smiles of its former LCP Aachen, Germany people will remain my dearest memory.

AIESEC in Tanzania has given me more than work experience and provided me with the support I needed. They taught me to appreciate the diversity we have in our world and a way to apply it in healthcare settings. ~Sarafim Rahadi, New Zealand

This also help the companies with sustainable international human resources as well as the CSR plan. AIESEC believes in youth leadership development - the leadership elements we strive to instill in youths through the program are being Self-aware, Solution-oriented, Empowering Others and World Citizen.

The AIESEC team here is responsible to create internship opportunities through companies that agree to partner and work with us. Many of the interns this year are engaged in sales & marketing, finance, accounting, HR, administration among other fields.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Leaving the fear away and work to leave better Leaders for the next Generation.

The Impact attending IC to

By Rhoda Kambenga, AIESEC NEWS

The fear behind Business Development Portfolio This portfolio seams to scare or has been of less interest to most AIESECers in Tanzania. This situation has to be changed, thus why I took this role to show my fellow AIESECers in Tanzania that they should not fear. BD is the portfolio that gives someone an opportunity to get some external perspective, strengthen communication skills , widen your networks and far most it’s the most practical and reality portfolio that lands you into different challenges and have a platform of learning , failing, failing again and stand up to move forward after series of evaluation . Q1 was not a smooth ride; it was like putting a puzzle all together. But from the mistakes learned the start of Q2 has been good and working for it to be better.

Organizing Committee for Career Fair and Youth Speak It is encouraging seeing young talents taking a bold step in seeking more experience by being part of the Organizing Committee for our two biggest events this year, Career Fair and YouthSpeak.

For Career Fair we are expecting to have 30 companies in which 5 are national partners. We are bringing uniqueness to CF this year by extending our audience to more careers according to company needs, we are becoming more customer centric.We are also going to use Bridge project as a buildup to CF event, by using iGCDP interns and companies to deliver different topics on career guidance to both University and High school students. This will build anticipation toward the event.

These are brave individuals who took the bold step to make sure that the Youth Speak Forum and Career Fair are happening. Its our belief that they represent us well and with love we wish them all the very Best.

Team stand Inspiration to BD

MC Archer’s team stand “Face your fears, let your story inspire the world” it has always been my motivation point. In BD life there are lots of fears, fear of rejection, talking with people of high profiles, meeting corporates expectations, dealing with a dissatisfied partners, retention and increasing more partners have always been a fear, but I was ready and I am facing them in my every day BD life, through Qualities of Leadership Development Model I am able to face these fears and develop to that leader that the world needs.

Taking IC home at the LC-MC summit

Business Development

Attending IC 2015 in India was the most impactful and marked a mile stone for my BD experience. Meeting over 30 MCVPs BD and BD managers from all across AIESEC network, got time to share ideas and learn from each other. Before I felt alone but from that engagement I have found a family that I can rely on and make my leadership experience awesome. My other amazing moment was YouthSpeak Forum, it was so impactful and engaging as well, Seeing all those young people engaging in different discussions to talk about matters that press them and coming out with an action at the end was so impressing. AIESEC Tanzania is going to held YouthSpeak Forum in May 2016 and it’s going to be an impactful as well.

Sales One on One Summit

MC – LC Summit. This was another moment after IC where MC Archers had to bring IC learning’s back home and get aligning with LCs. I had a great time with VPs taking them through sales simulations and get them to know about sales and encourage them to face their fears, and I can’t wait to hear their amazing stories. With the coming events hopefully they will create a good pipeline for BD in Tanzania and change the status quo.

During NIS in Dodoma BD portfolio organized a summit called sales 101 . The main aim was to spread Sales knowledge to members and let them know that Sales is everything in AIESEC for organizational growth and financial sustainability.

It was a good initiative as 25 delegates signed and participated fully.

After the summit every one understood why they should do sales and how to do it, they went through sales simulations and mock sales and got their feedbacks . I can say we are now having a generation which does not fear Sales and their ready to face their fears and write stories which will inspire the world.

By Arnold Katho, AIESEC NEWS

Train the Trainers Seminar

Recruitment of new members Attending East Africa Pioneers is about to take place Congress 2015 It always happen once in a year as we recruit new members for the long life of an organization as we now for any organization to develop it needs people. For us has AIESEC we normally deals with university students and recent graduates and as much as university education is of three to five years and each years new people are jion these universities that why we recruit each year.

Here in AIESEC in Tanzania we have six local offices allocated in Arusha, Kilimanjaro, Mwanza, Morogoro and Dar es salaam for six different universities. And this month all of our local offices will be conducting recruitment.

We aim to engage every young person for different youth to get an opportunity to join us and develop their leadership potential.

We want to use this opportunity to invite each university student to join us and experience the amazing leadership experience we are providing.

Any young person can join us through our local offices which are Mzumbe University (Morogoro) ,University of Dar es salaam, Institute of Finance Management, St. Augustine University of Tanzania(Mwanza), Moshi University and MAKUMIRA University (Arusha).

Conference and seminar is one among our way of learning and developing, as east Africa Region once in a year we always have our conference called pioneers which aims to bring together AIESECers of East Africa and other part of the world together to discuss about the growth of the region and many other stuffs.

This year this congress happed in Ethiopia and some of our members got an opportunity to attend it and create their lifetime experience. We so believe these members who represent AIESEC in Tanzania will be ambassadors for others who didn’t make It to the conference and share the knowledge.

One among the focus for AIESEC in Tanzania this year is to build a good pipeline for members on facilitating and training. Due to that we decided to conduct the three days seminar and name it train the trainers (TtT) which was conducted at kigamboni Dar es salaam from 15th Oct to 18th Oct 2015.

More than 18 delegates who are now good trainers attended the seminar and get an opportunity to develop their facilitation skills and presentation. We are so believe that the seminar was of life changing for them and gave them a reason to be good trainers in the society, we are looking forward to see them takes different facilitating opportunities for them to pose the knowledge to the actions and create their facilitating experiences.

Thanks for Alvis Kashaija for taking his time and be our chair for the seminar we appreciate and his presence was one of the motivating factors for the delegates as he gave more real life example for the delegates to understand the reason for them to become good facilitator. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

What we do in Talent Management Prepared by Arnold Katho First I would like to say thank you for taking your time and visit this section, I hope after reading this section you will have a clear picture of what we are doing as talent management team for AIESEC in Tanzania.

Basically Talent Management is a responsible department in AIESEC for the human resource assurance and development, we are here to ensure that organization has man power and those man power are developing day after day for their personal achievement.

We as AIESEC organization are responsible and we aim to develop leaders this world needs. And in order to develop those leaders we need to create a good environment for each person to go though so as he/she can develop and become the person we want and also he/ she wanted to be as well. And that is the reason of we have human resource department to ensure that those members who took a bold action and join our organization are developing day to day.

This year one among our national target is to make sure we manage our pipeline with the right skills and people who can take this organization to the next direction, also to prepare environment for members to generate good culture that can manage the performance of the organization for the future generation. Due to that we have different activities which will be conducted to ensure that is happening, by starting I would like to invite you to go through few updates we have shared.

National Conferences National Induction Seminar In the second quarter of the term we successfully managed to do an Indiction seminar to the new recruited members from our local offices.

The conference was held in Dodoma at African Dream Hotel for four days and it was historical this time since it was chaired by two AIESEC in Tanzania alumni, Bakari Muhando ‘Beka’ and Ian Tarimo.

MARKETING AND COMMUNICATIONS

The Stories we Write to Impact and Inspire

By Ephraim Gisayi, AIESEC NEWS

I got More than Just the Experience I Expected

We all have the same heart: The world is one Village

I got a motivation to participate in the exchange programme and chose China as my destination which would give me the new experience I wanted. I got to China and I volunteered in a project which involved teaching in a secondary school and working with different NGOs around the community.

All I wanted was an experience in China but it turned out that I got more than just what I wanted. While in China I made a family of friends from 91 different countries who completely changed my mindset about the world.

This is the best experience and best moment of my life.

Now I can call myself a Global Citizen, thanks to AIESEC!

Nyanjige Mazeleng’we Local Committee Vice President-Global Internship Program (AIESEC in SAUT) It was the best 6 weeks ever in my life and it was spent in Uganda. I worked on an Entrepreneurship project and I got to understand how this aspect of life makes most people grow their network and achieve a lot more. One thing I got to understand again is that we all have the same heart, it doesn’t matter where you are, what you are or who you are, the whole world is just one small global village. I am a lot thankful to AIESEC for providing me such a wonderful and exiting experience.
