Self-Aware Responsible for the World
AIESEC is enabling life-long leadership journey for young people. Based on unique nature of the organization
and essential elements to trigger leadership journey, we want to develop the following:
Effective Communication
Aware of strengths and
weaknesses;
Know personal values
and purpose in life
Aware of the world‟s issues, take ownership
for it and act
Can engage others with personal purpose and
values;
Can communicate effectively and build networks
I & myself I & others
I & the world
Self-Aware
Effective Communicati
on
Responsible for the World
Leaders who are self-aware know their values and purpose, and stick to it.
Leaders who have good self-awareness, know themselves well enough to recognize and
acknowledge when they have reached their limits. These limitations might be in areas of
personal knowledge, understanding, skills or gifting. Such leaders acknowledge the point
at which they need other people.
Self-awareness also enables leaders to stay composed and balanced, particularly when
under pressure or in a crisis. When challenged or criticized, this “shock absorber” of self-
awareness gives a person the ability to respond constructively.
Self-awareness enables person to lead authentically.
Self-Awareness
We aim to inspire young people to take responsibility for the world and use their
potential to address world issues, because we believe that living for one‟s own good is not
enough.
Responsibility for the world starts with awareness about existing issues and belief that
one young person can bring a change.
„The world‟ can mean anything from local community, city to the whole world.
Responsibility for the World
Effective communication helps us better understand a person or situation and enables us
to resolve differences, build trust and respect, and create environments where creative
ideas, problem solving, affection, and caring can flourish.
In the information age, we have to send, receive, and process huge numbers of messages
every day. But effective communication is about more than just exchanging information;
it's also about understanding the emotion behind the information.
Effective communication combines a set of skills including ability to express your own
thoughts, attentive listening, the ability to manage stress in the moment, and the
capacity to recognize and understand your own emotions and those of the person you‟re
communicating with.
By communicating effectively you can improve relationships, build strong team and
network around you to achieve common purpose.
Effective Communication
But it depends a lot on individual and his current capabilities

Diversity of stakeholders and its quantity influences on leadership development. For example, interaction with diverse cultures or different types of stakeholders (boss-customer-colleague; AIESEC-company-NGO, etc.).
In the outer Journey there should be some support system for the inner journey. It can be a mentor, coach, buddy, etc. Support system can be provided by AIESEC or any other external stakeholder.
