Testimonials Q:How has AIESEC helped develop or shaped you? How have you value-added to society? ! My AIESEC experience started off with me being an exchange participant to Slovakia as part of a project called "Educate Slovakia" to share my local culture with the students there. I joined AIESEC as a Talent Management Member upon returning from my Global Citizen Development Programme as I felt inspired to provide the same quality experience for youths out there. I then stepped up to take on the role as Vice President Talent Management in my 2nd year in AIESEC. I would strongly encourage youths like you to challenge yourself and join AIESEC to develop your potential and be the change you want to see in the world!! !
Lek Kai Jia, AIESECer since 2014
Q: What is the greatest takeaway of your AIESEC experience and any words of advice for the youths of today. My AIESEC journey has been about stepping out of my comfort zone and seizing opportunities within the organisation, which are plentiful. From volunteering abroad to supporting local enterprises to organising international youth conferences, the unique experiences that AIESEC gave me were endless. Along the way, I honed my leadership, communication and analytical skills. However, I think my greatest takeaway from the two years I spent in AIESEC is indubitably the enterprising attitude it inculcated in me. Along with the other 70,000 AIESECers worldwide, I am ready to step up, step out and stand out to make a difference.! Michael Wongsosaputro, AIESECer since 2013
