INCOMING EXCHANGE
When I joined AIESEC as a first year university student, I never thought I could develop so quickly in such a short period of time As a member, I learned to feel confident in public speaking and that it is fine to take a step back when you feel overwhelmed I was really surprised when I heard that I could be a team leader without having any experience With the support of my VP, I had the confidence to be one. As a team leader, I learned how to manage my time and should handle conflicts in a team. What I really liked was that we were all students with different studies, backgrounds and interests, but as an LC we worked like those differences were never there. I was connected to like-minded people, which made me feel safe and supported. I am earnestly grateful for the opportunities I had because of AIESEC, such as growing with my personal and professional self development, creating a network and developing strong friendships within the organization

AIESEC is the thing you don’t think you need, but it’s the thing that changes everything for the better. This is what the previous semester taught me. I discovered new people, new ways of thinking and on top of that I also discovered myself I’m way more enthusiastic and more open to change I learned what my strengths and weaknesses are and how to improve overall. I recommend the experience because it will simply bring a new perspective.
