Today is the coolest day for the whole AIESEC Almaty, as this day the members have selected new President of organization, who will lead the local committee starting from May 2009 for one year - its current LCVP External Relations, Dima Dmitriev. I feel really happy for him today and for the whole AIESEC in my city, as this person is the one whom we call "potential", that's those members who join the organization with personal capacity and great will to develop themselves, absorbing everything what organization gives, taking various opportunities and just growing from year to year. Its very important for the older members to recognize those people, let them join AIESEC and you will after that see - who they will become in the future. I'm really happy that being in the organization, we could recognize such a potential in him 3 years past...
Even if such people you can't see being always on the 1st row and sometimes they are so invisible, but the times show everything after some time... They take one responsibility, second, third - they amaze you by the results and attitude they take towards every task. Then the time comes to lead a team for them, but they afraid whether they will manage - you support them and believe that they can, he or she is so scared to step for the first leadership role, you try to support from your side with knowledge, information, but od the otherb things - its up to them... You see how they live their first unsuccesful experience, that teaches them the most to stay stronger and they understand "what doesnt kill us, makes us stronger"... and they become stronger... Then their path seems to go so fast and the results amaze you a lot... their personal development in the organization becomes huge! and here you are - a grown up young person, who stays apart from most of the crowds of young people now - they are simply "different" and they are ready and not afraid of taking any challenges... They are simply talents in everything.
I'm sure and I was telling you a lot, that President's experience is the best ever! It is still the best every for me... I'm just simply happy for you and wish could be this day with you - to congratulate from all my heart...
That's the most powerful thing for AIESEC, when you can recognize those potential people and give them all the opportunities for growth... After some time they will amaze you... I was like that, you are like that and many-many young people who join organization once...
This is true - international platform for young people to discover and develop their potential...
