Nihat was awarded the Best AIESECer Award at the 20th Year Anniversary of AIESEC in Turkey
and later bagged the Alumni Contribution Award at the 35th Year Anniversary of AIESEC in Turkey.
He is the president of the AIESEC in Turkey Board of Advisors Group. He has been donating US$
10,000 every year to the Member Committee of AIESEC in Turkey for the past 30 years.
In 1992, he gave US$ 4,000 to the National Committee of AIESEC in Turkey to buy its own offi
ce. He also supported them in the opening of AIESEC in Georgia and has provided the LC with
references for contacts to companies in Georgia.
He has neither chaired any AIESEC conferences nor gone on any AIESEC traineeships, but he
chaired lots of meetings and conferences besides AIESEC.
Since he worked in AIESEC in the late 60s, it is not very possible to track the results of
his performance, but he was working more on Raising TNs.
He is an Executive Board member of the biggest afforesting organization in Turkey. He
supports this organization in terms of funding and volunteering. He has also supported some
activities about the custom union that was done by AIESEC in Turkey.
He has been involved in all the meetings of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation, Foreign
Economic Relations Board meetings, Turkish Industrial lists and Businessmen Association Meetings
and HABITAT II.
His leadership style is value-based. You can also understand this from his achievements till
now. He had worked or volunteered in international business, entrepreneurship and culture.
His company was the main sponsor of the New Horizons in South Anatolia Project, donating US$
20,000 and also supported the IPM 2000 in Istanbul with a donation of US$ 10,000. He donated US$
5,000 for the 50th Year Anniversary as the sponsor of the Official Dinner. He has also been
contributing different amounts of money for the attendance of AIESEC in Turkey in International
Conferences every term.
He is still very active in all AIESEC activities as a trainer and advisor. He attends the
national and international conferences that are organized in Turkey, manages all the board of
advisors meeting and facilitates Alumni Talks with the current MC Members to share his experiences.
“If we want to meet with one of the companies for BOA Membership, he has to approve it and
talk with that company manager first before we hold an interview with the new company. As he has
been working in Istanbul more than 50years, we can claim that he is a well known person, so we take
his opinions first and a reference letter from him for each company that we are going to meet for
the fi rst time.”
