Our President

“As AIESEC UA’s strategic leader I learnt so much. Not only about management, team work and other cultures, but also about myself”

Nicolas Van Spilbeeck LCP AIESEC UA

“It has been an amazing year! I had never thought that I would be able to do so many different things and meet so many different people! My year as LCP of AIESEC UA has been a whirlwind and I love it!

I decided to join AIESEC after going on a university exchange in my second Bachelor year in the Uni-ted States. It was an eye-opening year where I got in touch with an AIESEC’er from Brazil. I immedi-ately knew that I had to join the organisation back in Antwerp. In my third Bachelor year I joined as a Team Member in External Relations and at the end of that year I was so thrilled by the power and op-portunities of this organisation that I decided to apply for VP Project Management. After a successful year I felt that my AIESEC story was not finished yet and I applied for LCP. One of the best decisions in my life!

During the past year the LC grew significantly. We were able to capitalize on some of the foundations that we built the year before. This year we lined up some new partners for our Incoming Exchan-ge Programme. Besides our loyal partners such as Alcatel Lucent and Statoil, we were able to work together with companies of the likes of VGD Luxembourg, ECS and Elster. Our External Relations department laid the foundation for more successes. With 62 company meetings the AIESEC message was spread out over many companies in the Antwerp region, building leads to new opportunities.This year was also the year in which a new department came to life: communications! We improved processes, got a brand new website and increased our awareness on campus.We scaled up the level of membership with a successful recruitment. We were able to set the right expectations and therefore increase commitment of the teams. The Middle Management gained more responsibility and our Team and Project leaders grabbed that chance with both hands. They became the engine of the Local Committee. As a result AIESEC UA became the most prominent delegation at every AIESEC conference!

Moreover a great pipeline for the future was formed. With a lovely new Executive Board and Middle Management Team, combined with many other motivated Team Members, the future looks bright for AIESEC UA! I’m therefore happy to leave AIESEC UA in the good hands of my successor Roberto and the next teams! Good luck!”

Outgoing exchangeWhat we did this year

Improving of the review board Tracking of applications Optimizing the selection criteria Segmentating the market Conversing raises to matches

Barbara Van Den BremptVice President OGX

Timeline of Barbara

2008 AFS intercultural program in Santa Catarina, Brazil2010 Start of studies at University ofAntwerp: Applied Economics2012 Middle Manager OGX at AIESEC UA2013 Member of the National Exchange Quality Board at AIESEC UA 2013 Vice President OGX at AIESEC

My accomplishments this year

“My biggest achievement was the improvement of the review board in the outgoing exchange track. A review board is a selection interview in which we assess the skills and motivation of potential ex-change participants. To ensure they are suitable candidates we want their expectations to match the offer we have on the AIESEC internship database. Once passed this first appointment the candidates are notified and get an invitation for a second assessment. Here the candidates solve a little case in groups of 4 people. Group behavior, team spirit, logical thinking and leadership can be evaluated in order to have a good idea of the person who wants to be an AIESEC ambassador abroad.This process might be more time consuming but students feel much more confident going abroad once passed the second assessment.”

Skills I acquired

“First of all, the greatest skill I learned was how to organize a team of 17. Working together with so many people was something I had never done before and was a real challenge. AIESEC gave me the possibility to learn, act and deliver. I have acquired leadership skills throughout the year, which implied getting feedback from my team, delegating more and relying them. They were the power behind our operations and I could have never done the same without them. Secondly I learned how to manage my time better. Before my AIESEC year started I had a lot of time, but once I got elected for the EB, I knew this would no longer be the case. My agenda changed from grey and boring to colorful and vibrant but above all very full. Finally, something I learned at conferences was how to share your opinion on a certain topic in front of a group. In the past I was often not bold enough to stand up and share my opinion. At AIESEC conferences however, it was all about sharing. AIESEC conferences changed me tremendously.”

Most memorable experience

“Being part of the EB team I could always count on the support of all the EB members. We worked as a team throughout the year and I am really grateful that I could be a part of that. The greatest experience for me this year was the introduction session during the first semester. For me, being an EB member, it was amazing to recruit so many talented and pro-active students for my team. That great start made me so proud to be EB ’13-’14 but also made me realize that we have a lot of growth potential towards the future. I am convinced that every member of our EB did his/her utmost to achieve this goal of development and growth.” Charlotte Fivez

Middle Manager Management & Matching OGX

“When middle manager positions opened, I wasn’t sure which position to choose. Eventu-ally I chose for management and matching, because this is truly what OGX is about. I’ve learned a lot this year, but the one thing I liked the most is that I learned how to interview people. People can often surprise us, and when interviewing them you can often see who someone really is. I also learned to work with a team and guide them. AIESEC to me is about personal growth, inspiring others to become leaders, beingthere for one another and especi-ally making a lot of friends. I’m already looking forward to next year. I hope to have a team as awesome as the one I have now and inspire everyone to go abroad!

Louiza MansahMiddle Manager Marketing OGX

“I chose to apply for the ‘ middle manager marketing and recruitment OGX’ position because I wanted a function with responsibilities. Helping students who have the same goals and motivation suited me. I improved my personal skills, ranging from public speaking to project management. One of the best memories this year were the conferences. At a conference you learn more about AIESEC with a new perspective. You can network, share ideas, get inspired and have a lot of fun!”

“I had a year filled with new friendships, amazing projects and an unforgettable team that stood beside me and supported me in so

many ways.”

Incoming exchange Charlotte Van LentVice President ICX

My accomplishments this year

“To me incoming exchange is about experiences that have an impact. Expe-riences for our trainees who come live here for one year and experiences for the companies that work with us. The impact can be found in big things as well as in the little ones; an experience abroad, the clash of cultures, things that people can learn from each other.I wanted to involve AIESEC and the trainees of AIESEC in these experiences so that they can share them with others. Furthermore, we have been able to convince two of our ‘old’ partners to start working together with AIESEC again and hire new trainees.”

The skills I acquired

“As a VP ICX I have learned to maintain contacts with companies, meet deadlines and acquired some basic knowledge in Human Resources; finding the right candidates for several applicants. Also, through contact with our trainees I had the chance to discover cultural differences, get to know the Belgian culture and personality a bit better and off course make a lot of very good friends.”

Most memorable experience

“When different members come together at LC meetings, workshops, even-ts, parties or conferences you can really see the growth that AIESEC has made in the last couple of years and you can feel the impact AIESEC had on young people. It gives me a lot of satisfaction and pleasure that I could be a part of this as a VP.”

“Incredible, exceptional and unforgettable!”

“Every activity or meeting I did, was with a lot of exci-tement. I think it is amazing that AIESEC gives people the opportunity to gain extra values and norms and gives people the chance to enlarge their social net-work with many international people with different cultures, religions, backgrounds, etc. from which you can learn a lot. Although I’m graduating this year, AI-ESEC already has influenced and will still have a great influence on my personal development.”

External RelationsSuet Ying SuVice President ER

“My year as a VP has been the most eventful and instructive

year in my study career.”

My accomplishments as a VP

“To pass my knowledge and experience of Exter-nal Relations to all my teamleaders, in order that they can train the members. I wanted to make sure that my entire team had the information needed to sell the AIESEC product. My main goal was to support my team in their learning process in order to develop themselves.”

Skills I acquired

‘Managing and keeping track of a team of 30 members was a huge challenge. In order to make my team succeed, I needed to make sure that ope-rations were organized very well. By doing so, I improved my decision-making and problem-sol-ving skills. Every decision I made had to align with my strategy. I had to bear in mind that the-se new decisions had to create new opportunities that will generate the outcomes that are most de-sired for the organization.”

Most memorable experience

“My best experience this year was not only ha-ving the chance to lead the department within AIESEC that interests me the most. The best experience is to work in a great team of people with all different personalities in order to make the organization run optimally.”

Timeline of Suet Ying

Jeroen Janssens Middle Manager ER

“As a Team Leader of External Relati-ons I had a team of very motivated peo-ple that wanted to improve their sales skills. Some of them will probably be-come the next Team Leaders of ER. You have a lot of responsibilities as a Team Leader. Going on all these meetings with representatives of a company was one the most interesting things I have done this year. I have also made a lot of friends and they are a great source of inspiration and motivation.”

Isabelle CammaerMiddle Manager ER

“The company visits are without doubt the most enriching part of the job. Getting in touch with actu-al managers gives you a taste of real life business and forms a unique opportunity to develop your mem-bers and yourself professionally. My global mindset has only enlarged since I joined the organisation. My career in AIESEC has shown me the many opportunities that traveling and international cooperation have and thereby enlarged my soft skills significantly. The manager position in External Relations has taught me the importance of communication, the experience of teamwork and the capability to lead a team.”

What we did this year

Maintaining the company database Promoting the Global Internship Program and Campus Recruitment Experience Program Researching and contacting organizations Preparing and coordination external meetings Providing the ER members with functional knowledge through training sessions

“A HR manager whom I had a meeting with offered to show me around by car in the port of Antwerp. That was a fun experience!” - Bart Meuwese, Middle Manager ER

CommunicationsYanni VissersVice President COMM

My accomplishments this year

The challenge of starting up a new department was a great experi-ence. Starting out on my own and then being joined by a team of wonderful new AIESECers made this an unforgettable year. The biggest accomplishment would be seeing those new members rise to the challenge of managing a team, leading a project, managing communications channels, designing promotional materials and much more. They started out as regular students when they joined, but by the time they graduate they will be much more than ordinary students.

Skills I acquired

More so than my previous term as VP External Relations, this year gave me the opportunity to work in a much more diverse team. Many team members did not come from the Business Faculty and this means new challenges as a VP; from different ways of thinking to very different schedules.

Most memorable experience

Driving a motivated team of people forward to start up a track was a brilliant experience. If I have to pick one moment it would be the efforts of all Communications and other members towards making this Annual Report and organising the Stakeholders event. Whether it be when working together or when enjoying the sun in the Univer-sity courtyard or having a great teambuilding, being together with my fellow AIESECers lights up my day.

“AIESEC allows you to be an intrapreneur: building anything from an event to an

entire department from scratch”

Celine MissoortenMiddle Manager COMM

“I joined AIESEC to develop my skills in strategic communication during my master year. However I intended to be a member - to watch and learn, when I found out that the track was being founded from the bottom, I thought I might as well turn 3 years of Commu-nication studies into reality. It was an amazing opportunity. As a complete layman I learned so much from getting these responsibilities and working to-gether with someone like Yanni. I regret not having applied sooner.”

Project Management What we did this year

Streamlining the organisation of events Increasing the attendance at our events Improving the quality of our events

Accomplishments this year

“Bringing our events to the next level by streamlining their organization, impro-ving their quality and having more at-tendees, like for example at our Job Fair, were we saw more than 100 attendees than last year!”

Skills I acquired

“In general, I made enormous leaps in my time and stress management skills, but I also learned a lot from organizing a wide range of events, everything between a Job Fair for more than 350 people to a luxurious Gala Night for our members and alumni.”

Most memorable experience

“Difficult to choose, but participating at OC meetings and watching our mem-bers develop their skills is one of the best things you can experience as an EB-member.”

“A wild rollercoaster ride filled with amazing experiences & great friends.”

Talent Management Anthony AckermansVice President TM

“Talents are common, everyone has them – but rare is the courage to follow our talents where they lead. AIESEC paved the way.”

My accomplishments this year

“The position of VP TM has been quite a different story than what I experienced as a VP F. However, together with my beloved team we managed to launch well advanced fundamentals of member and alumni tracking tools along with a useful and sophisticated member database. Talent Management has become more professional. Quality and performance can now be calculated and opportunities for improvement become apparent almost immediately.”

Skills I acquired

“Since TM focusses more on the bright talents of the or-ganization, the development of each individual member is more visible as well as the impact of strategic decisions on the internal culture of AIESEC UA. Besides, I believe I gained better time management skills as well as a more profound knowledge of competencies, their importan-ce for an organization and strategic thinking on how to better allocate and stimulate specific competencies whi-le simultaneously aligning member and organizational goals.”

Most memorable experience

“From all the unforgettable moments I experienced throughout the year, I would say I truly enjoyed the mo-ment AIESEC UA took the LC picture. As an EB member, these moments represent the accumulation of all the indi-vidual impact we have on the lives of each AIESEC’er and all that was immortalized on picture.”

Steven VlaminckxMember Manager TM

“I believe this position provided me the most opportunities to really get to know many of the people in the organization and learn more from their experiences. The conferences helped me to under-stand the organizational structure of the world’s largest student-run organization. I have had a wonderful experience with AIESEC and am proud of what I have achieved in cooperation with my VP and my amazing TM team.”

Carolien VermeirenMiddle Manager TM

“I felt ready for this new challenge and it turned out to be a very enriching journey. One of the greatest things I experienced this year was the amazing AIESEC at-mosphere. I am thankful for all the op-portunities I got and for all the things people taught me. I feel stronger now than I’ve felt before. My AIESEC experi-ence has been very inspiring so far.”

Jérémy CoquilhatAlumni Manager TM

“As for the alumni tracking, I learned a lot about the AIESEC UA history and got the chance to lead a team that would track the alumni. I think they did a great job and I hope that our work will help fu-ture AIESEC members understand how AIESEC UA became as it is today.”

What we did this year

Maintaining the member database Analysing the impact of AIESEC UA in Antwerp and the market Revising the alumni database Increasing the member retention rate, the presence at LC meetings, the rate of full members and the member involvement Improving the member education Managing a good transition over the years

Finance“The most awesome, life-changing, educational experience all pushed into one year.”

Roberto BenabidVice President F

My accomplishments this year

“My biggest achievement this year was transforming the isolated finance track in an integrated AIESEC track. The finance members became more AIESECy and understood the contribution of the finance track to the overall AIESEC mission. Moreover the par-ticipation of finance members in national conferences was never so high.

Secondly, the Budget of AIESEC was never so efficient as this year. We organize pro-jects, spend money on our members, etc. much more cost-effective than previous years. We always investigate the return on investment in both monetary as non-monetary terms before spending.

Thirdly, the excel we use for our bookkeeping is updated and further developed. This year the finance track added a “review center” in the excel which will automatically draw graphs, calculate key performance indicators, etc. by this “review center” the finance track is able to monitor the financial situation of AIESEC UA at any given moment.”

Most memorable experience

“The moment that I will always remember as an EB-member is standing in front of po-tential AIESEC’ers during our recruitment event. The feeling you get when you see so many people interested in our organization, our mission, and our vision. AIESEC UA is a people-driven organization and it makes me happy to see so many AIESEC’ers in Antwerp with such a high level of commitment.”

Timeline of Roberto

2009 Start of studies at University of Antwerp: Commercial Engineering 2012 Middle Manager Finance at AIESEC UA2013 Vice President at AIESEC UA

Laurens SomersMiddle Manager F

“The greatest opportunities for this were definitely the conferences. I went to Functional Meeting in Fe-bruary and consequently to BeFLDS in March where I got to fully enjoy the AIESEC experience! What I found the most fascinating about this MM position is that you can learn a lot about the operational and financial structure of AIESEC and the impact that all tracks have. It is really satisfying to see your team members grow, both in terms of skills and persona-lity.”

What we did this year

Maintaining the budget for each event Integrating the Finance track into AIESEC Organizing the Wolf of AIESEC

KPI’s Realized

Budgeting Quality KPI 42,29%This KPI measures the difference between budgeted numbers and realized numbers.

Cost Flexibility KPI 27,23%This KPI measures how the costs are adapted if the revenue forecast changes.

Quality of Data Entry 100%This KPI measures the quality of the data entered in the bookkeeping excel file.

The finance track has developed a couple of KPI’s in order to decide at the end of our term if the finance track was successful or not. These KPI’s don’t say that much right now since it is the first year that the finance track has integrated these KPI’s. Therefore these figures will be more useful for next year in order to decide if we are doing better or worse than the previous years.

The indicators were measured the 6th of April.

Key Performance Indicators

Timo BeversAuditor F

“I enjoyed being a part of the Audit team in AIESEC Belgium. This team, consisting of 11 members, thoroug-hly went through the books of four LC’s by using the checklist which was created together with PwC. In the following years the audit can also be executed in the other LC’s. This will increase standardization of all LC’s and can greatly improve overall performance!”

Stories of trainees

DAVID MARQUIS ORSETTIFrom VenezuelaGraduated as a Telecomunications Engineer in 2012Working for Alcatel-Lucent as a Junior Networks Engineer for Northern Europe.

How I found out about AIESEC

“I first learned about AIESEC in my home university UCAB, it seemed like an interesting opportunity so I decided to look into it.”

AIESEC and their traineeships

“Having been an AIESEC trainee in two different countries as well as a member of AIESEC in Venezuela I have to say that within AIESEC you really have the opportunities to develop yourself as a leader. From being able to assume leadership roles starting from small projects to nationwide coordination of events and partnerships, to being able to travel the world and work with people from other cultures. I would say that there is no doubt that being an AIESECer you quickly learn about what you are capable of achieving, and will also develop skills that will allow you to dream big.”

SkillsI acquired during my traineeship

“During my time at Alcatel-Lucent I acquired the confidence to work in a professional environment with a very diverse group of colleagues who come from many different countries, the technical skills that al-low me to understand the complex networks that allow us to commu-nicate every day, the organizational skills required to manage diffe-rent technical projects, and the flexibility to move from one project to another while being able to adapt to new complicated scenarios.”

Most memorable experience in Belgium

“My most memorable experience was the first night I arrived in Belgi-um from Venezuela. I was invited to an LC meeting and afterwards we went for a few drinks. I had only been in the country for two hours and was already meeting new people and having lots of fun!”

“Being an AIESEC trainee has been one of the most valuable experiences I’ve had in my life”

LAURENCE DUMONTFrom France Graduated as a Master in Marketing Working for Alcatel-Lucent as the AIESEC Global Coordinator

How I found out about AIESEC

“Through a friend who had seen a flyer about in-ternational internships on the floor. She went to the information session and thought it was great so pushed me to apply to become a team member!”

AIESEC traineeships

“I think AIESEC’s internship programmes are a truly great way of combining your thirst for inter-national discoveries as well as professional skills development. It’s an “all-included” deal!”

About my position as Global Coordinator in Alca-tel-Lucent

“My role is to recruit AIESEC interns for Alca-tel-Lucent worldwide. Right now, we have interns all around the world who have come through AIE-SEC and who are living the GIP experience. In or-der to find the right talents, I also have to promote AIESEC within Alcatel-Lucent as well as to explain what Alcatel-Lucent does to AIESEC members and exchange participants. So in my daily job, I get to work on HR, Marketing, Sales, Finance... it’s a su-per complete job!”

What Alcatel-Lucent is looking for in trainees

“We are looking for young people who are wil-ling to think out of the box, to be entrepreneurial and creative. In a company driven by innovati-on, we need talents who can translate their skills into concrete projects while thinking of the next big thing that will help us connect better around the world.”

Why Alcatel-Lucent likes to work with trainees from AIESEC according to me

“The talents that AIESEC offers Alcatel-Lucent bring a real dynamic to the company: they are ambitious, eager to learn and develop and stron-gly self-driven. The international aspect is also a key factor to bring in fresh ideas: new perspec-tives are always welcome within the company!”

Skills I acquired during my traineeship

“There are so many I don’t even know where to start! Flexibility is definitely key in a company that’s changing so much every day. Learning how to adapt to any situation as well as being soluti-ons-oriented no matter what, is something that is needed for this role and which I have the chan-ce of developing more and more every day. Also, as an ambassador for the partnership within Alcatel-Lucent and AIESEC, knowing how to present the partnership according to whom the stakeholder is, is a valuable asset.”

Most memorable experience in Belgium

“One of the best memories I have was the “dunch”. AIESEC organized a dinner/lunch whe-re everyone (member, trainee, team leader…) had to bring in a dish from their country of ori-gin or a country they had visited. It was a great way of getting to know other cultures and star-ting friendly discussions. I then discussed this concept with the HR Director of Alcatel-Lucent in Belgium and he thought it was a great idea to promote cultural diversity within the company. So what was a great moment in my personal trai-nee experience turned out to be also a great pro-ject for Alcatel-Lucent!”

“A great learning experience that allowed me to be much more self-aware and better prepared for the future”

Stories of traineesNICK STERCKXFrom Belgium Graduated as a Master in International BusinessWent on a GCDP in the Philippines

How I learned about AIESEC

“I heard from AIESEC at job events and presentations”

AIESEC traineeprogrammes

“I think both trainee-programmes (GIP and GCDP) are very interesting and good if you want to develop yourself in a pro-fessional and personal way.”

My work in the Phillipines

“In the Philippines I was working for the ngo GKONOMICS. I did a product design internship and my main assignment was to think about new products, which poor communities could make to sustain in their own life support. I came up with the concept of a USB stick with a wooden framework that companies can buy as a corporate give-away. The board of directors was very enthusiastic and they wanted me to cal-culate the cost and market the product. The day I left the first prototype was made and this product can be found in the product catalog right now.”

Skills I acquired during my internship

“I’ve learned a lot of different skills, which I will carry with me for the rest of my life. But the most important ones are: learning how to work with different cultures, independency and improving my leadership abilities.”

Most memorable experience in the Phillipines

“I had a lot of different fantastic experiences during my in-ternship: from travelling with my fellow foreign colleagues to some of the craziest parties. But the fact that will be in my heart forever is the power of Filipino, and in general all Sou-th-East Asian people. I was there when typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines very hard. I was working with poor commu-nities over there who already don’t have anything and they keep on smiling and want to share with everybody even after everything is destroyed. This experience taught me that we as Western people can learn a lot from the social mentality and mindset from Filipino people. They are so strong and I have a lot of respect for them. When you fall, rise again but stronger!”

“I met some of the most wonderful people in the world and I could say they are friends for life!” “

Stories of alumni

LIESBETH OLLIEUZALUMNA, AIESEC 2002 - 2005

My AIESEC Experience2002 Joined the new AIESEC UA LC as a mem ber of the TN team. AIESEC UA was being founded from scratch. Our key ambition was to convince companies to offer traineeships. 2003 Elected as the VP ER. 2004 Worked on different projects as OCP. 2005 Elected as LCP of AIESEC UA.

Learning within AIESEC “I must admit that AIESEC gave me exactly the challenges and opportunities I was looking for at the time. I learned quite some practical things in AIESEC, such as the facilitation of workshops, the organisation of events, how to delegate - and how that can go wrong, how to manage people conflicts, usage of the SWOT and OGSM models, how to con-vince and sell, how to negotiate and much more. Also personal development was part of the deal; I learned about my strengths and weaknesses thanks to good and honest feedback I received, how to handle tough moments when I or someone else was not elected for a position. But the most important thing I believe AIESEC brought to me, is what is in its mission; bringing people from all over the wor-ld together, sharing common values and objectives. Even though I work in a company with a lot of nati-onalities and a very open culture, the AIESEC expe-rience is something unique that you can hardly find anywhere else, I believe.”

Most memorable moment within AIESEC “In my role of VP ER, I was responsible to keep and find new sponsors. As I explained earlier, AIE-SEC Ufsia and AIESEC Ruca were merged only two years before that, so we had still and inheritance of AIESEC

Ruca sponsors. A computer shop in Edegem, Accel, was one of those sponsors, from which I had heard the contract would be terminated because of the distance (they were targeting students from Ruca to sell computers to) and because they wanted to fo-cus more on B2B in the future. Nevertheless, I took my chances and called the manager of the shop, and with the skills I acquired after calling hundreds of companies in the TN-team the year before, he ap-preciated my efforts so much, that he invited me over. Yes, one step closer! On the day of the visit, I went to the company with the ultimate ambition to get their old computers, as we needed to replace our dinosaur computers, still datingfrom the 90s (only floppy-disk compatible, can you imagine. As usual, I did my presentation of AIESEC, introduced all the nice and useful work we do, how we allow people to grow and exchange students im-prove inter-cultural understanding etc. We got two brand new computers, and a router on top! Unfor-tunately, we couldn’t give a lot back to Accel, so I believe two years after the memorable deal, the con-tract was stopped. That was a pity, but understan-dable. Still, I hope this story can inspire people to always try.”

Influence of AIESEC on professional career

“After my graduation from university, I started in the operations division of Euroclear Bank, and that was not exactly giving me the exciting and enriching experience I got when I was in AIESEC. It feels a bit unfair, that you have to start from scratch again, but that’s unfortunately what it is, and that’s one of the biggest challenges for any AIESEC alumnus - adap-tation to the “normal” world. After one year of work in operations, I was offered the unique opportuni-ty to join the Lean transformation program in Eu-roclear as an internal consultant, which was again giving me new challenges and growing opportuni-ties as I had in AIESEC before. Organising dyna-mic and interactive workshops, do problem solving in teams, giving training and presentations to big audiences during regular “bootcamps”. Yes, I was very happy, and I’m 100% sure it was thanks to my elaborated section on AIESEC in my CV, that I got that job. Only recently, I took a new career step in Euroclear; I’m now risk manager for part of operati-ons, which is a great learning opportunity and again a unique chance that was given to me, as I’m still ra-ther “young” to do this job. I’m convinced AIESEC opened a lot of doors to me; maybe some doors I’m not even aware of. I can only strongly recommend people to join AIESEC if they want to make a diffe-rence; it’s a great starting point.”

“AIESEC was for me without any doubt the most enriching experience in my life, which resulted in a successful pro-fessional career, ge-nuine friendships and more tolerance and understanding towards the challen-ges we face in our global world of to-day.”

My AIESEC Experience2008 Joined AIESEC as a member of ER. 2009 Elected as VP Finance 2010 Elected as LCP of AIESEC UA

Learning within AIESEC

“Within AIESEC, the number of learning oppor-tunities are really countless. I already told many times the same sentence to new AIESECers: “The more time you invest in AIESEC, the more you personally will get out of it”, and it summari-zes the potential so easily. And that is of cour-se not only true within AIESEC, but also within your personal and professional life. When I have to choose one thing, what I learned from being an AIESECer, is understanding the importance and power of building up a reliable personal and professional network. Having people around on which you can count when you are facing difficult situations or when you needs advice in order to take important decisions, is so important. But as I said, it will always be a two way relationship, and therefore you can never forget to also invest suf-ficient amount of time in sharing your experien-ces and offering your help towards your network. Building up transparent relationships of mutual trust can be very time consuming, but in the end the reward will be high as well!”

Most memorable moment within AIESEC

“Throughout my entire AIESEC Experience, I had the opportunity to team up with amazing people, and experienced an amazing time. Two highlights that mean a lot for me, are the moments when we were awarded as Best Performing Local Commit-tee Of AIESEC in Belgium, both in 2010 and 2011.

Not for the moments itself, but receiving this recognition really rewarded all of our members,alumni, university, partners, and actually all of our stakeholder who contributed to the success of AIESEC UA. Being one piece of this puzzle gives you a great and fulfilling feeling.”

Influence of AIESEC in professional career

“Today, I am a business consultant at IBM; wor-king mostly of the time in international project teams at client site. Within AIESEC, you have the opportunity to learn a lot, but also to experi-ment and try out new things such as how to lead a team, how to draw up a planning, to motivate people, giving and receiving feedback, etc. . As a junior professional, these experiences, that you are carrying with you in your “backpack”, are priceless and will definitely facilitate you to achieve your professional goals. It gives you a solid foundation where you can always rely on, even when you are facing challenging objectives while thrown in an unfamiliar environment.”

Achievement as AIESEC UA Alumnus

“As an AIESEC UA alumnus, I tried to assist our current organization leaders, by sharing my personal experiences within AIESEC and my insights as a junior professional. It gives you a real fulfilling moment when you still can join an LC Meeting in the evening, and you are able to meet so many enthusiastic members eager to take up new challenges and bring AIESEC UA once more to an higher level. It has been a true pleasure being a strategic - and financial Board of Advisors member and chairing the Election General Assemblies.”

“AIESEC UA kept on growing steadily the past years, and I am sure that the same trend will be fol-lowed the upcoming years. I will always be proud to be an AIESEC UA alumnus; and don’t forget: “It is never impossible to reach the im-possible, when dividing the impos-sible into reachable goals.”

Stories of alumniMICHELE VAN SPILBEECKAIESEC ALUMNA 2010-2011

Learning within AIESEC

“Never in my young life have I felt more pr-oud, more enthusiastic and more alive after anything I have done. As a final decision maker and leader of an LC as AIESEC UA, I learned so so SO much. Not only did AIESEC thought me more on leadership and manage-ment skills. As well did I get the chance to meet wonderful new people, to get to know myself better and to learn how to work in a team on a day-to-day basis.”

Most memorable moment within AIESEC

“My LCP year 2012-2013.That year, we put so much effort, energy, love and dedication in creating an amazing AIE-SEC UA and a basis for many years to come. We had big and smaller problems to overco-me, but it was all definitely worth it.

For several years already, we are the strongest LC in the network of AIESEC in Belgium and because we wanted to keep it that way we fo-cused on undertaking sustainable actions that will make it possible for the LC to continue building upon what you has been achieved.

And it can be said that my year as an LCP is made unforgettable thanks to my strong team of eight wonderful people.”

Achievement as AIESEC UA Alumnus

“Organising the AIESEC UA Stakeholders event in 2012. This was when I realised that it does not often happen that people in their young life get this unique chance that AIESEC gives you. As an AIESECer you learn such va-luable lessons on leadership that no lecture, no course and no workshop could have given you as a ‘normal’ student at University of Ant-werp.”

Influence of AIESEC in professional career

“I still work in an international, fast paced and ambitious environment as Global Ma-nagement Trainee at AB InBev. And I still love making people enthusiastic for things that I’m fond of. Only now my passion for beer is more visible than my (still eternal) passion for AIESEC. But I will always grab any chance to defend, sell and protect AIESEC UA.”

“I won’t say that AIESEC can change the world in one year, but I do think it can impact a lot of people in one year. And in a truly international network with almost 90,000 AIESECers in the world, imagine what we can do if we reach this amount of people again every year after year after year...”
