AIESEC in Italy
Member Commi*ee President 20.21 Applica'on Package
Dear AIESECER, It’s with a lot of excitement and pride that I welcome you to this applica5on package. I recall that weird feeling inside my stomach when I was in your shoes one year ago, so if you’re feeling weird don’t worry, everything is fine and normal! Being MCP of AIESEC in Italy has been the most challenging experience I’ve had so far, but also the one I cared the most about. Why? First, because of the impact this role has. This role will put you in the posi5on to improve yourself and what is surrounding you every single day. It will force you to take decisions every day, and it’s all about the metrics you choose in order to take them. Will they be your values? Your ego? The pressure of other’s judgement? The best for your people? This is the most challenging part and the one that defines the path of an En5ty beyond one term: it is powerful, isn’t it? Secondly, but not for importance, because of Italy. I truly believe this Country is as beau5ful as paradoxical. You find true beauty in the simplest things, but it’s not simple at all. It’s the most beau5ful place to call home: it has a great history, culture and great people that need to be taken care of, and that will always take care of you. If all of these excites and scares you, you are in the right place amica/o. I wish you the very best in this process,
Michi
