EXECUTIVE BOARDApplication Booklet to join the

of AIESEC in UTP 2016

Dear Leader,You are a pretty awesome human being.

You are unique, talented and ambitious. Perhaps, you have ideas no-one else has, or values that everyone needs to learn from. Maybe you dream of a better society, or you know your work will make Panama a better place. You are right.

At the same time you believe you can be more; learn more, know more. You want to grow, and develop yourself because that is the only way of achieving your dreams and goals. Actually, you are specifically reading this because you think being part of this Executive Board will make you a better you.

You are wrong.

Being part of this Executive Board will make you stop thinking about yourself. Thinking about growing more, knowing more, learning more, being more, is helping exactly no one. Everyone around us needs you. Society, our interns, our partners, our university, need you. They need leadership. They need you to fulfil your dream. They need you to go and achieve your goals.

Everyone needs you to be their leader.

Ultimately, the UTP Army needs you too. We need direction, focus, expertise. We need strategies to grow. We need someone that shows us the way. We need an example and a friend.

We need you to be our next Vice President.

We need someone that stops thinking about him or herself, and starts giving it all because everyone around us needs us.

We need you to be our best

ARCHER

Are you ready?

Activating Leadership by Empowering Others

The StrategyIn 2015, we had a huge success inside. Our committee is strong and achieving exchanges. Results–Oriented, good financial health, strong processes, several Good Case Practices. We are on our way to achieve 200% Growth in only one year by tripling our exchanges. What’s next?

Reaching outwards.We need to reach our interns and EPs, and make them go through the same challenging experiences we do. We need to reach our partners, and empower them to join our Movement. We need to reach other committees and actively contribute our knowledge while learning from them. We need to start…
