What does partnership with AIESEC means to Global Partners
Today we had opportunities to get to know more of Global Partner and it was DHL and Alcatel.
The first presentation was from DHL and we were celebrating 10 years anniversary of AIESEC-DHL partnership. They gave every delegate an orange bag (similar to one Slavik has) with a small car inside :) What does partnership with AIESEC means to Global Partners
Then a short presentation followed by ballons and salute. Just amazing. They just spend a year amount of money we receive in Ukraine for a year based partnership for this 30 minues presentation :)
And the other one was a guy, Vice-President Global Marketing (I hope you do understand what does it mean) of Alcatel. And can you imagine... He was talking about his company less then 5 minutes during whole half hour. He was talking about himself, AIESEC, us, our future, our next page in life. And he was joking like crazy and my favorite one was: "AIESECers are so strange, they know what they do want to do a whole life, but don't know what they will do next year! :)" Just amazing isn't it? And this guy wasn't in AIESEC, he got to know and learn it later and now he is almost 40 years old. He also shared some ideas about our first work place and his thoughts are next: find a job that will help you to CHALLENGE YOURSELF, WILL BE PRACTICING ACTIVE LEARNING INSIDE OF YOU and something else. And the main message is that it doesn't really matter what company do you choose first if you are basing yourself on this principles you anyway will be successful.
And in the end I want to say that those people (I mean corporate folks do really know why they partner with AIESEC.
