Some of them are obvious: desire for constant learning,systema�c thinking, and crea�vity, adaptability to change, sense of responsibility, capacity of analysis, pa�ence, listening and suppor�veness. Each of these characteris�cs is important to be able to perform in the environment of AIESEC Kenya.Society knowledgeBroad knowledge of world and na�onal systems, current trends, issues facing society are important to represent the organiza�on that AIESEC Kenya must manage and lead.

MC Frequently Asked QuestionsMC Frequently Asked Questions

Which �me is the most involving of the year?

What were your unforge�able moments while in MC?

Is it worthwhile/rewarding being on the MC?

“Quarter one running un�l October is the busiest months of the year and this is mostly a�ributed to the Dinner and IC. So many things are happening and you feel like you are not in control of a lot of things. The reality of your responsibili�es hit you a�er IC and how much work you have to do in order to deliver results in your por�olio as well as make yourself visible in the LCs. The la�er is usually the toughest and I did not think it would be so hard to “be there for the LCs”. You realize your role when it’s you they are calling to deliver trainings and at the same �me the MCP wants to capitalize on Q1 in order to drive results. All in all during this �me you have to learn to make your MC members your best friends so that they can understand what you are going through and you can even delegate some of your tasks if it gets too tough.”

“At Interna�onal Congress when we received the UBS award as well as the mandate to host IC 2011! The whole conference itself was unforget-table: being one of the 600 leaders cha�ng a way forward for the organiza�on is truly something!”

“Si�ng in an LC office in the middle of the night with the EB ea�ng toasted bread and black tea for dinner a�er a memorable mee�ng with the members.”

“Travelling at 2am from Eldoret in a matatu to Nairobi from an LC visit, ea�ng chips and soda, wai�ng to begin yet another day at work :-)!”

“The first five-day transi�on for both MC teams in Thika; Ge�ng to know each other for the first �me, as well as sharing our plans for AIESEC Kenya, was really amazing.”

“It will be rewarding, if you know/knew what you want/wanted to run for! If you feel like running, because you s�ll have some �me that you want to spend in AIESEC, we would advise you to dig deep and find out what you will give to the organiza�on and how you feel it will contrib-ute to your development. It is not about the money, it is not about the fancy mee�ngs with externals, it must be your passion that drives you. Only with that passion can you drive an organiza�on and your members! If at some point you realize, it is not worth it, then you have to create that experience for yourself!”

How is interac�on with the LCs?

“Interac�on with the LCs is mostly based on por�olio and du�es as MC responsible. As a member in the MC, of course the LCs may treat you a bit differently from how they did when you were in the LC, but it all depends on how you decide to relate with them. Being in the MC, one of the most rewarding �mes are those that give you the chance to help an LC with either your �me or knowledge and actually see all this come to successful frui�on. It is quite a rewarding experience! So your interac�on with LCs is really what you make of it!”

How much �me does being on the MC involve? (weekends, general working �me, …)

“The official working hours of the MC 2009/10 were 35 hours per week. We kind of got rid of core office �mes during the year, as most of us were in school. Nevertheless I think the next team should be having core working �me, for example: One day, where everybody is in the office from 10 to 3pm. Now lets talk about the reality…. I don’t think that there was a single week where we came below 50 hours per week. Especially the trips to the LCs outside Nairobi, NEBs, weekend seminars and LC team buildings lead to the fact that most �mes, 3 weekends per month are full with AIESEC events. But they are fun events! :-)”


MC Frequently Asked Questions...contd.MC Frequently Asked Questions...contd.

How is it like being an interna�onal on the MC?

“Being an interna�onal MC member in AIESEC Kenya is just the best experience to ever have! This country is so beau�ful, the people are so welcoming and the work is too much to even realize this statement could not be true!This year we were two interna�onals, in 2007/08 we had our VP TM&OGX from Hungary and 06/07 our VP TM from Denmark.Firstly let me say that I was not a “real” interna�onal, as I had been to Kenya for 4 months before on my DT in 2008. Anyways being on an interna�onal MC is a challenge! My basic sugges�on for survival is to come with a huge amount of curiosity, humour and pa�ence. Very soon, I was part of AIESEC Kenya, my MC colleagues never treated me “different”. As an “outsider” it is important to be confident about your own skills and personality!About logis�cs: For my MC term I was lucky to get a host family within AIESEC. This gave me the ideal situa�on of having a warm and welcoming place, one of the most important things when being away from home for long. When applying, be aware, that this is not for granted. There is no MC house yet.Learning Swahili or Sheng just happens easily. Calling home is a bit costly, but I keep contact with my family and friends through email. Some�mes it is good to have extra cash to treat yourself when you get homesick (interna�onal food is expensive), security is �ght at night (taxi) or you fall sick.Talking about surviving… yeah, Nairobi has a higher crime rate than a lot of other ci�es in the world. Losing your phone is basically part of the experience!”

Manuela Mueller(German)- VP TM 2009-2010

“A�er ITC I was revitalized, and as a direct impact I went straight to my MC and asked for interna�onal opportuni�es - three days later I applied for MCVP-PD in Kenya, two weeks later I got the answer and went ecsta�c!, two month later I stepped out of a plane in Nairobi - and now , I am looking back at an MC term that has been both challenging and joyous, that repeatedly pushed my limits both professionally, socially, physically and culturally. I have sworn in anger, cried in despera�on, shouted in happiness, shared dreams and nightmares. I have seen nature I would not believe existed, and I have seen people living under such bad condi�ons that you would not believe existed either. I have developed both tolerance and respect for my fellow Kenyans and I have become street-smart from living in a ‘dangerous’ city - I have also become harder as poverty and crime became a daily part of my environment and I have come to feel safe in the presence of policemen with rifles (a thing that freaked me out when I came). Kenya is a country of extreme diversity - a country that have both scared the *** out of me, but also charmed me to the bo�om of my hearth - a country that has enabled me to learn so much more than I could ever have learned in any fancy job back home in old scandinavia.”

Kris�an Madsen(Danish)- VP TM(then PD) 2006-2007
