This exclusive memorabilia will be published in print, and tell the story of 60 years of activating leadership through the experiences that different members of AIESEC had during their active time in the organization. These stories will focus on the impact that involvement in AIESEC has on individuals, and how they activate their leadership at a young age. This will not only preserve AIESEC’s unique organizational history, but also give insight into how young leaders responded to external trends.
As a partner, instead of simply adding a corporate advertisement to the celebratory publication, you will be able to contribute with leadership stories from one of your employees. You will be able toprofile an AIESEC alumnus/a from inside your organization and publish the story of this individual – the nature of their development as a member of AIESEC, as well as their subsequent success working for your organization. As a partner you can thus profile your support of AIESEC, and thus ensuring long-lived presence in a unique AIESEC memorabilia that will be cherished by people connected to AIESEC all over the globe.
