How can AIESEC Romania focus on the 20% that brings 80% of the results?
The key word for the next year in AIESEC Romania should be simplify. This word should be
encountered in almost everything we do especially when it comes up to the processes that
we implement, to our way of work and the way we communicate.
There is a challenge that comes with this idea: making people aware that doing the things in
a simpler way doesn’t mean that we don’t have to think big, it means that we have to find
the simple, efficient way to achieve and overcome our results. Doing simple things must not
limit our creativity and our innovation.
Simplify our processes. We have to identify the processes that are worth keeping, eliminate
the unnecessary elements, and give the LCs the ability to customize them on their local
realities. In the same time, if needed, add new simple processes that will help the country in
its quest for achieving results.
As I was saying above the process of simplifying must not kill the innovation and creativity.
We are always searching for new and innovative solutions for our problems and most of the
times we don’t achieve the expected results because we either get lost in too many things
that we have to do or we don’t have a good timing. By doing this we make our work
unproductive and, in most cases, at a lower quality. We should start investing our focus in
doing one thing at a time and on finding the perfect timing.
There is a trend in the country to allot a large amount of time for certain things, so that we
won’t be constrained by the time limitation. The answer is shortening the deadlines. This
removes the need to double-check everything. A process started a long time ago needs
extra checking right before the deadline. Having a smaller period for implementation will
constrain us to do things right from the beginning, will build thrust in the team and will
make the team experience more qualitative.
In April, the MC will meet all the presidents for the planning meeting, where we’ll create the
strategy for the next year. That is a the key point where all of us should have in mind that it
is a period where all our processes and plans need stability and the way we’ll achieve that is
through simplifying what we do and eliminate the unnecessary. Create a simple plan that
every member in the country must understand, plan what will deliver high qualitative
results.
I will resume my response with these two principles: limit the tasks to the few important
ones in order to shorten the work time and shorten the work time in order to limit the tasks
to the few important ones.
