INCOMING EXCHANGE

Looking back at this past year, I can say I am extremely happy that I chose to take the step to become LCVP of Incoming Global Talent (iGT). This year has been a challenge, but a true privilege overall I am glad to have met so many likeminded, but yet again such different people. Working in the EB with people with diverse backgrounds and personalities was education and enjoyable. Being able to lead a team of six in iGT was also a real learning experience. Managing not only members, but managers and team leaders was exciting Co-creation and teamwork were central in our teams. I can definitly say I have grown as a leader from this experience.

I am proud of what our team was able to achieve. Most of all I am happy with the synergy with CX, Customer Experience Our workings were efficient and effective, always communicating clearly and working through problems together. In addition, celebrating our successes together was a highlight of my term,

What I am most grateful for in this experience, was that it gave me the opportunity to get out of my comfort zone AIESEC has made me grow on so many different levels, I have gained confidence and am able to speak to large crowds without hesitation. Not to mention the enormous amount of practical skills I acquired.

As we continued with our strong account management and seeking new partners, we achieved 14 approvals. 14 people who got the amazing chance to come to Antwerp and work here. What I am most pleased with is the trainees who continue to work at the companies in Antwerp, developing more there and finding their new homes here On the other hand we have the compananies who expand and thrive with the trainees. This impact is what makes AIESEC such a unique organisation, one I am proud to be a part of.
