We shall not cease from exploration , and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and, know the place for the first time.

T.S. Eliot, Four Quartets

What is the meaning of the Hand above the Capitol? It expresses a philosophy.

The result of a life of study, of struggles, of defeat of victory, over the years, stood the Open Hand,it became the ‘crowning point’ , of what was called the ‘contemplation hollow ‘ by its creator. A place to discuss public affairs , to look at things differently, far from officials ,elected or imposed . The hollow was dug at the summit of the city , dominated by the Hand shining against the mighty Himalyas. The floor of this ‘consideration’ pit led to 2 amphitheatres, to see , think and talk about what was real. 2 amphitheatres because there are 2 sides to everything. They had chairs for people, to speak , a platform for the acoustic , all of this dominated by the Hand.

The Hand is mounted on a ball bearing that turns with the wind, it does not turn aimlessly, but to express what life really is-constant changes. The Open Hand means open to give and open to receive. It is a sign of optimism in the world amidst catastrophe.

The only other picture that comes to my mind, of a place like this is this Local Chapter, being the AIESEC Chandigarh plenary , being AIESEC in Chandigarh . This place has witnessed years of greatness , every single thought about AIESEC in Chandigarh, about the past, the present & the future has led me to think about where this LC comes from, what this LC stands for and where it is supposed to go, all over again. Simple set of people who built the greatest form of the Local Chapter over the years, with the drive to achieve beyond one could ever dream of. We had bad times , we had good times and we had great times. Our existence over a quarter of a century, dominated by our ability to bring forward to the world, the strongest leadership. And over the golden years of magnificence, we again stand strong, to enter the year, 2015. The year they all envisioned and strived towards, for a better tomorrow. Their tomorrow becomes our today. The year that lives to chase none , because this time we are at war. Generations that built our Generation , see us today to live, deliver and achieve a winning 2015.

With Courage in our hearts, that inherit us to dream

Committed to build every single day, in real The year of Winning is now and today.

I welcome you to a generation that will Conquer Greatness, conquer our best, our own greatest form.

Shreya Khajuria

To always serve the Local Chapter with Open Hand

AIESEC in Chandigarh

Our Greatest Form shall be conquered

2. What have been your main achievements and non-achievements in AIESEC in the past?

(Mention a max of three each)

Main achievements

1.Strength of character: Fears make you weak, winning over them make you the strongest. I have been limited by self-created paradoxes that would give rise to personal fears and doubts, only to realize my ability to conquer them. Resilience has come naturally to me which has strengthened me as a selfless leader, and help build perseverance that would last the mightiest test, with an undying resolve to not give up. 2.Talent Management: Applying for this portfolio was one achievement in itself, enduring and building it from scratch throughout the year has been another. Leadership development has been the core of AIESEC in Chandigarh and WonderWall ran the show beautifully itself, I was just lucky to be a part of them. I do believe that I could have done much more for learning & development, something I see myself doing in the future too. Non-achievements

1.Exchange (Top-Gun):

Top Gun has always been the closest to my heart since the first time I saw the plane took the final

90-degree flight in the video. I was not able to contribute as much, in terms of exchange numbers as

I potentially could have; loosing TopGun has been my biggest lesson in life.

2.Imbalance:

As a child, my parents have always found me in chaos, confusion and hustle. Like in any other

defense family, time management was a priority, something none of the cousins could keep up with.

I have not been able to balance college, health and work as well as a Manager should, but I have

seen a major progress when I reflect on the same, the Executive Body term has been the biggest

Teacher for the same and the art of balancing has been indeed improved.

4. Describe the experience of being a part of the Executive Body of AIESEC Chandigarh.

How do you think other members on the team would evaluate your contribution to the

team & LCs organizational direction?

It has been my greatest privilege and honor of having lived an Executive Body Member experience

of AIESEC in Chandigarh. Being a part of it in the year, that started on the onset of building the

most powerful form of our existence: our ambitious behavior to dream for the greatest, and resolute

will to never back down, build with undying resilience, and metal while on the way to fulfill it,

contributing to the bigger purpose, to be an institution that continues to transcend beyond

invincibility. I have been lucky to be a part of the year, where we made the choice of being our best

form and take the uprising towards it. The journey has been more than my best team experience,

my team mates have been my biggest critiques and challengers yet they were my biggest support,

inspiration and source of courage.

Page 8: Shreyakhajuria_manifesto_lcpcandidate_2015

Shreya Khajuria | Applicant for Local Committee President | AIESESEC in Chandigarh 2015

Here is how the team shall evaluate me:

o Immense contribution and guidance for team and LC decisions

o Creative and innovative ideas and ways of being

o Unwilling to accept that something can not be done

o Very particular about cultural ways of being

o Undying trust in leadership

o Biggest critique

o Aggressive and unfailingly annoying

o Some one they could trip on

o Someone who could do much more

5. What aspect of your Executive Body term could you have significantly improved upon

(personally and as a team)?

‘You are the biggest resource and liability of your team, it is on you what you choose to be’.

My Executive Body Term has been my best team experience which has broken and built me into the

person I am today. I shall always hold the belief, that I could contribute much more to the team

when it comes to being forthright at feed backing, or frivolous while having fun. Everyday discipline

and being expressive at the right time would have helped me support everyone much better, and be

more resourceful. As a team, we were more attached to the Local Chapter than each other, and that

is the greatest strength of the team, to be purpose oriented than being people oriented and still be

in love with each other. Everyone challenged each other enough to bring forward their greatest.

6. What are your three basic Learning/Values for life, which you have derived through your

AIESEC experience? (Answer objectively)

“To be a rock and not to roll”

The strength to endure or outdo is not in the competency but the gravity of love and

commitment you have for something.

The more have you failed, the more have you learnt, the more are you prepared to achieve.

Core Value System; The AIESEC values have become a part of my core ideology, that helps

me look at life in a more purposeful way and aspire to serve in my greatest capacity.

Section D | Motivation

1. Why did you decide to run for LCP of AIESEC Chandigarh? What are the qualities required for this

role & what makes you best suited for this role?

The Why behind Courage

I have always been the person who wanted to give back to the society and the people, through

building people. Our LC’s core has been the sort of leaders it has created through powerful

experiences impacting hundreds of lives each year. To go beyond at something, we are already great

at, takes immense courage.

Courage is not an attribute or strength, it is comes from being fearful, from fighting the fears and

winning over them. Courage differentiates between what we can and what we want to achieve, where

we are and where we intend to be, what we have and what needs to be reclaimed. Courage that

enables one to dream, to understand the bigger purpose and strive towards its fulfillment, and safe

guard what is prestigious to one. There would be no greater way of giving back to the Temple that

build me, as it has always deserved my greatest, my best and never less

The greatest form of Commitment

Why build people? Why change them? How to help some one who does not even want your help?

Why always care about things that may just sound fluff to anyone else? What is the basis of that much

conviction? And so many more questions , that are easy on the road least travelled by. But I never

give up on the ones I love, nor do I lose hope in what I intend to do , because I would be the only one

denying it from being real. This is a place where failures are accepted ,but not giving up. We are in a

good place right now and I am more than committed to take it beyond greatness, for commitment

builds in existence, what the courageous dreams about.

WINNING

Why winning? Are we doing it for being number one? Do we care about being number one or being

ideal or simply the best? Is not winning to boastful already? Enough can we said, for it justifies our

loss. Winning is not for chasing the others and becoming number one, winning is being at war,

winning is conquering our greatest and best forms, winning over the hearts of our members,

customers and the ones we intend to collaborate with by being humble, for they understand our

‘purpose’, our why of what we do, winning is accomplishing what we have been building with

commitment that, was once a dream who gathered courage over the years, winning is

making 2015 real.

2years and 2 months in this organization has been a lifetime of learning, that has taught me the need

to be brave in ambition and disciplined in actions, I am more than ready to take this responsibility and

take the Temple beyond Greatness.

Shreya Khajuria | Applicant for Local Committee President | AIESESEC in Chandigarh 2015

2. Describe your future short-term and long-term career and personal goals. How do you expect an LCP

term to help you achieve these goals and why now?

Personal Goals Career Goals

(Short term)

- Becoming Local Committee President, AIESEC in

Chandigarh 2015

- Read 20 books on my wish list by October, 2015

(Long term)

-Open AIESEC in Syria

-Travel the biggest art museums, explore

literature and best works of architects across the

world

-Learn piano, violin and mouth organ

(Short term)

-Graduate by May 2015

-Online courses to enhance my coaching, training and

consultancy skills

(Long term)

-Complete my masters

-Build a great company called Life Architecture for

coaching and consultancy

-Organize a platform to bring together greatest Leaders

of the world with youth and parents

An LCP term is indeed the ultimate test of Leadership.

-Ability to serve: The LCP stands to give to the Organization, to serve it and never find out ways of

getting through it, best service offered to over 100 students of the city, and 800 customers yields

biggest learning possible.

-Experience: This experience offers learning in a dynamic environment through a practical platform

that no books can teach, managing people who combat their ways through personal priorities & work

and grow.

-Leadership and Management: The ability of being a Leader and a Manager at the same time is

offered each day which will help me be a Life Architect in the best of my capacity one day in life. An

organization dealing with so many people, help me explore, learn, unlearn and write.

-We are the explorers, the pioneers: Having built a great Organization and a platform to give back

to the society, I would one day look back at AIESEC experience and know, how the dots indeed

connect backward, this experience would act like one of the dots.

3. Highlight your time commitment throughout the whole of next year (till Dec 2015; Academic or

otherwise). Ideally, how much time should an LCP give to his role?

I intend to graduate in May 2015, exams in April and otherwise basic college attendance management.

The role of an LCP demands 24*7, 365 days to the Local Chapter and more than that, 100%

commitment.

One strong belief – “ As an LCP, you have to put everyone in front of you, But for answering,

you have to stand right in front”. Hence any amount of time for this role as long as this belief is

met

Page 11: Shreyakhajuria_manifesto_lcpcandidate_2015

Shreya Khajuria | Applicant for Local Committee President | AIESESEC in Chandigarh 2015

4. What are your three most substantial personal accomplishments (non-AIESEC), and why

do you view them as such? Provide a candid assessment of your strengths and

weaknesses.

Purpose: To be able to relate, have a sense of purpose, to look out for ‘why’ of doing

anything and endeavors to generate a sense of purpose in everyone around me helps me

not surrender to rat race but helps me discover, create, dream and achieve.

Self-awareness and psychology: Sensing is one of my strongest strengths and

something that I really enjoy. To be able to understand what people go through, why they

are reacting in a way, increases my reason of serving all the more. When we talk about

changing the world and build the leadership that the world needs, we need to understand

ourselves first, our strengths and weaknesses, personal values and purpose.

Ethical self: For me, at the end of the day, any role in life has been for becoming a

better person. Not surrendering to any other practices that people do in this age even

unwillingly, I have made my choices, been ethical to my people and myself and displayed

integrity in all realms of life, very courageously.

5. Define AIESEC in Chandigarh’s direction in 2015 in a single phrase or a statement. (Can be

a stand or a vision or a mission statement)

AIESEC Chandigarh’s Vision statement laid out at NSC 2011 ”First choice organization for delivering high volume of excellent stakeholder experiences through physical and virtual platform around the world. We are known for engaging and delivering socially responsible, culturally sensitive & entrepreneurial leaders around the world who create a cross generational impact on the society.

This statement not only denotes the culmination of previous year towards achieving 2015 but hold the truest essence of what it is meant to deliver in its being. Through our Leadership and Brand, we shall conquer our Capacity to be able to dream and be World’s best Local Chapter by the end of the year, for next year.

6. Describe your leadership style? Explain how your style will be suitable for AIESEC

Chandigarh in its current state.

People Build Themselves: (Life Architecture)

I have always held this firm belief that

Leadership needs to inspire, not

influence. I hold great respect and love

for the ones I lead and like to not just activate but also develop leadership within them, through

them. People take responsibility of their choices, make mistakes, work on themselves, learn from

each other, think and make their own decisions. The greatest privilege of watching one grows

because he/she understands the purpose and wants to contribute for his/her development and

serve others.

Martin Luther King, Jr. on August 28, 1963, called for an end to racism in the United States through his dream. Delivered to over 250,000 civil rights that inspired people to act and liberate themselves, for themselves and others. He said, ‘I have a dream’, he did not say ‘I have a plan’.

Page 12: Shreyakhajuria_manifesto_lcpcandidate_2015

Shreya Khajuria | Applicant for Local Committee President | AIESESEC in Chandigarh 2015

Fanatic Discipline and Empirical Creativity

This is something that I have evolved recently (really recently) and truly believe in. Sense of

creation and originality that I always held dear to me, if based on empirical evidences will give you

results (not mere fluff), if only we are

fanatics in ruthlessly implementing

what we are courageous enough to

dream for. Love, faith honesty and

consistency go beyond skills and

knowledge, they make you stronger

and help you deliver winning results.

7. What power does the role of an LCP carry and how do you intend to wield this after

becoming (the LCP)?

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

— Marianne Williamson

The greatest power of Leading the 150 lives, translates into the greater responsibility of enabling them to be

their best forms each day of their AIESEC journey , undergoing the inner and outer journey that enables

them to experience the emotion of competition, and feeling of winning, through greatest hard work.

Fanatic Discipline: -Enables confidence in our ability to perform well in adverse circumstances. -Reduces likelihood of catastrophe when hit by turbulent disruptions. -Helps in exerting self control in out of control situations

-Jim Collins

6. Give your assessment of the role-played and contribution made by AIESEC in Chandigarh towards

the National Association? How should this evolve in the year 2015?

AIESEC in Chandigarh has not only been one of the majorly contributing Local Chapters to AIESEC India in terms

of performance,but also in strategy mapping for the network, while evolving ourselves in the course of the same.

As a value driven Local Chapter, humble in our being yet highly competitive, we have pioneered many piloted

projects and have been known for our innovative abilities.

We have discovered and expanded to newer markets, that are now self-sustaining and developing entities.

Leadership Development has been our core and has contributed to the National Association, with numerous people

taking up National leadership opportunities.

2015 shall see courageous entrepreneurial leaders, pioneers from AIESEC in Chandigarh contributing as:

High levels of qualitative performance in terms of customer experience delivery.

More NSTs, NTTs and Conference Facilitators driving results and implementing National strategies.

Highly empowered and contributing delegation at conferences and summits.

Strategic direction and collaborative growth along with other entities.

The Golden era of Best Case Practices as before.

7. Enlist the key events that you intend to deliver in your year with proposed timelines.

8. Critically analyse the culture of AIESEC in Chandigarh. What aspects of the current culture will you

retain and what aspects will you change in the coming year? How do you plan to do the same?

‘What character is to a man, culture is to the Organization.’

Our Organizational Culture does not only denote our strength of character as a Local Chapter,but defines our

everyday reason of being a part of it. We are the pioneers, who have unfailingly maintained to try out new ways

of doing things, we are humble, yet highly competitive. We live by what the Open Hand stands for: open to give

and open to receive, beyond our own capacity, we are value driven, live the 6 AIESEC values. We are ambitious

and we are fervent. We have the ability to further channelize our ambitions into ruthless actions.

From here, the culture I want to retain and further evolve in 2015 is:

Channelizing our ambition and aggression, which have been the driving, factors for the organization into

ruthless actions.

Empowering team experiences across all levels for better learning that translates into performance and

provides intense inner and outer journey.

Local forums as GBMs, LC Day, LCongs as well as informal forums, to foster the spirit amongst the

generation as one AIESEC Chandigarh, ever enthusiastic and fun.

Culture of consistent performance,aiming to deliver multitudes of high quality experiences.

Department cultures that encourage strong sense of belonging, an environment, which makes one feel

‘safe’, yet stimulated by the competitive spirit and the urge to be ferocious.

Office culture for increased motivation,with scheduled working hours for the Executive Body.

Accountability structures to provide key guidance and feedback to improve and conquer the greatest

challenges.

Integrated Experiences to enhance leadership development and multiply our own impact.

Intern engagement, international conferences and CEEDership to provide global exposure across all

departments.

Our alumni have been a great strength thus, engagement shall be evolved

Give and receive respect and candor.

Virtual channels to optimize communication, inspire disciplined creativity and add to work ethic.

An environment where AIESEC is truly enjoyed and encourages to live the AIESEC Way.

9. Describe the role a VP will play in the LC (around performance & attitude) in 2015.

department culture ensuring timely implementation of

than an LCP, hence valuable contribution in create a

positive impact through delivering the right messag,e at

any LC Forum.

Accountability: Holding the EB, MB and GB members

accountable towards plans, finances and cultural ways of

being.

10. What according to you will be the most important trait of an EB member in 2015 and why?

Accepting full responsibility for his/her own fate.

Every EB member shall face continuous uncertainty that cannot be accurately predicted and controlled; yet they

reject the idea- that forces outside their control or chance events will determines their results.

The belief that we are responsible for our choices and accountable for our actions, Neither afraid of ‘what can be’,

neither imprisoned by ‘what is not’, courage that conquers the greatest weaknesses and fears with conviction and

resonates in ruthless bold actions & self less contribution.

11. Propose a Governance & Accountability model for the LC for the year 2015.

each of our program.

4. How can the new Customer Journey be leveraged out of for delivering a strong 2015? How do you

see the new GIS contributing to 2015?

Customer Centricity

The transition of our Standard Raise Match Realize process into Sign up-Apply-Match-Realize-Completed-Re-integrated

integrate the many steps that we promise to our customer and want to deliver but earlier could not due to failure at

tracking, managing and improving (which also made us too slow and too unaware of the experiences our customers were

having) , now with the Customer Flows and GIS as a tool to facilitate them have increased our capacity to invest our

energy in preparation and experience delivery for increased credibility.

Leadership in every Experience

Customer Flows in place, GIS shall be of immense help in delivering the inner and outer journey that each customer

wants, something that can be predicted, planned, delivered and tracked.

Section G | Functions

▪ External Relations

1. Propose key projects for BD in 2015. (Explain briefly)

1. Board Engagement & Alumni Relations Management:

Board Engagement throughout the year through quarterly review, feedback & performance

newsletters, invitation to event.

Managing Alumni Relations and tapping on various avenues wherein both the LC and the alumni

can support each other

2. Event sales:

Event planning to be facilitated by VP BD based on market trends and at least 2.5 months

window for raising to achieve fund raising target for the event.

Major synergy with VP Marketing for events as as Youth to Business Forum, Balakalakar and NLS

2016 for qualitative and timely delivery.

BD–OGX and BD-iGIP Synergy for yearlong partnerships, effective Stakeholder Management and

increased sustainable MDPs.

Global Village and LC collaboration in external events in bound as well as outbound market

(including Shimla, Solan).

3. Project Selling:

Highly trained Sales Team for VPBD

Increased iGCDP project selling based on issue segmentation

Evolving and product packaging YEs and Empower in Marketing synergy and Leadership

Development Programs

Exploring ‘crowd funding’ as a concept as Board Support for more avenues of Project selling

In-kind raising in synergy with Finance

2. Evaluate the performance of BD in the year 2014 (for Chandigarh)

Major improvement in Board Engagement and involvement at LC Forums

Tangible Board Support in terms of project funding and referrals (there is a major scope of

leveraging more conversions from here).

31 partnerships have happened in the year and have the potential of more contribution from the

clients.

The partnerships have the scope to be renewed and taken forward substantially.

Page 30: Shreyakhajuria_manifesto_lcpcandidate_2015

Shreya Khajuria | Applicant for Local Committee President | AIESESEC in Chandigarh 2015

Our BD Model of capitalizing on few big companies with higher slabs has not been very successful

due to tri city market realities

NEP has been a great opportunity (yet to be delivered by the MC)

Even though the membership was gradually ready to take sales forward, a Sales Team in place

could have helped in reducing the Target Vs Achieved differential by aggressive hardcore client

raising.

Strong emphasis on client delivery and not just client raising

New sources discovered for fund Y2B

Alumni support to the LC in terms of intellectual support and mentorship and funds has been of

immense help.

▪ Financial Management

1. Define a financially sustainable LC. How do you envision AIESEC Chandigarh in 2015 with respect to

being financial profitability and investment-friendly? (Also do consider the new financial changes)

A financial sustainable local committee is a local committee, which covers its operational expenditure and investments out of the income of its core product (i.e. exchange programmes). In direct terms, a financially sustainable LC would be:

Covering all operation expenses and investments from the exchange income and maintaining a 20% surplus out of exchange income alone.

Having sufficient liquidity throughout the year with minimal liabilities and receivables/bad debts.

Having proper implementation of financial policies.

All events planned should generate minimum 50% profit.

Having reserves, which can enable the local committee to function for 6 months without any income.

Having more in-kind support from our stakeholders to make our day-to-day functioning more cost effective.

Having surplus from ER funding only as additional funds and not being dependant on it for core operations

Going back to the focus areas of the year, our capacity to invest for yielding higher returns and be in a

condition where every project run is financially profitable, 2015 shall be defined by:

Supervisory Board to review the LC Budget every Quarter ending, guiding whenever in doubt regarding any

financial implication surrounding local realities.

FTF to ensure monthly financial review of programs with respect to cost structures pertaining to inflow & outflow

regarding all stakeholders, keeping a check on skewed program growth.

Total transparency with the GB and finance update at every GBM.

Strong implementation of financial policies to control cash flow, track expenses, conduct efficient accounting and having negligible bad debts

VP F will guide the idea of doing planned exchange through constant budgets reviews and not let programs to encourage clientele who do not pay within a specific time span.

Entrepreneurial model implementation to entail a strong sense of profitability and Revenue generation. Innovation in running delivery operations enabling huge budget cuts for the same sphere and allowing investments

to happen in other productive avenues with promising returns

Timely payment of MC dues, along with negligible liabilities Running profitable events.

2. Attach an outline budget with respect to your ELD program targets, including ER income from events,

collaborations etc.

Budget is based on 50% target achievement

Page 32: Shreyakhajuria_manifesto_lcpcandidate_2015

Shreya Khajuria | Applicant for Local Committee President | AIESESEC in Chandigarh 2015

3. Evaluate the performance of Finance in the year 2014 (for Chandigarh)

From 2013 where the Finance was about being sustainable, 2014 has been the year where all our operations have

substantially sustained.

iGCDP has been on break even whereas all the 3 remaining programs have been profitable.

Our bank balance has been above INR 2 lakh and event delivery has averaged 60% in terms of profitability.

Proper financial education, standardized contracts, documentation has been a strong behavior, Minimal cash

transactions replaced by receipt transactions.

Investments in logistical management, marketing, International Conferences and membership have yielded results

in terms of ELD conversions.

Recon has been paid before time, no MC liabilities, huge profit from NSC and relatively less market receivables.

Overall BD is to exchange revenue ratio has been descent.

Return on Investment, tracking has been there but needs to be more standardized and concrete.

FTF could play relatively stronger role to ensure budget accountability on a regular basis.

▪ Talent Management and Learning & Development

1. What is your understanding of the distinction between TM as a function and TM as a program?

Evaluate the performance of both in 2014.

TM as a Function TM as a Program

Talent sensing and planning as per

Organizational Needs

Ensuring implementation and tracking of Team

Minimums

Recruitment: Selection & Induction, fulfilling

talent capacity as per talent planning.

Operational Management of TMP/TLP

Strong communication and implementation

channel

Increasing Integrated Experiences with OGX

Synergy

Page 33: Shreyakhajuria_manifesto_lcpcandidate_2015

Shreya Khajuria | Applicant for Local Committee President | AIESESEC in Chandigarh 2015

2. Analyze the recruitment’s conducted this year. What innovations do you propose in the existing

processes to make them even more effective for next year?

February Recruitment: Extensive use of backward & talent planning, proper Organizing Committee in place.

Recruited 70 people, talent capacity was fulfilled, MB Mentorship was piloted and has been recognized for best

mentorship to be taken forward for February Recruitment nationally. Minimal AM conversions from last year and

inefficient oGCDP Synergy for raises and IXP. The concept of Wanderlust from last year was taken forward but

overall messaging was average and did not lead to IXP conversion.

May Pocket Recruitment: Majorly done through referrals and AM conversions. 15 pocket recruits fulfilling the

talent capacity for iGCDP , major results in Q3 .Overall AM engagement was sporadic and AMs was discontinued

eventually focusing more on TMP TLP in the next cycle.

August Recruitment: Extensive use of backward and talent planning, improved oGCDP synergy, selections

venue witnessed a major improvement in turn up, 93 people were recruited fulfilling the talent capacity. 6 people

recruited for OGX in phase 1 as against 15 needed, referrals have been supportive, and reintegration has been

minimal through the year.

For being more effective in 2015:

Outsourcing GDs as before and validating selections test externally.

More referrals of the existing membership and EPs for recruiting the right people

GCDP May pocket recruitment/ oGCDP August phase 1 recruitment to end within July

Competency evaluation based on the new Leadership Development Model

College wise planned recruitment implementation & tracking to increase brand presence and oGCDP

raising

Bi monthly IXP follow-ups and capitalizing on oGCDP promoters for re integration

▪ Marketing

1. What emphasis does Marketing as a function hold currently for AIESEC in Chandigarh? Critically

analyze the same. Also evaluate its contribution to growth in ELD programs.

Marketing in 2014 has been significantly consistent in terms of outreach throughout the year. Since recruitment

has been more about getting the right registrations than the number of form sales, Marketing has contributed to

both the major recruitments of the year in the most substantial way.

Media relations have been decent over-all, we have been the only Local Chapter in terms of major radio presence.

Youth to Business Forum has helped with stronger brand positioning and ELD Conversions. One major drawback

has been lack of proper tracking in follow up of registrations, which have not enabled us to gauge the customer

journey for all. This has also resulted in lack of substantial analytics to check the market trends. oGIP has received

major contribution for match able raises.

2. How should Marketing evolve in the LC in 2015? How do you see it contributing to ELD programs in

2015?

2015 needs Marketing to play its role in a way which not just builds a brand or gets results (ELD leads) but strive for

both through all its activities.

Analyzing Program markets and brand presence in each market for customized synergy. High BD Synergy to deliver clients (Basic Customer Experience Management) Increased on ground activities for better brand presence leading to increased registrations through external

partnerships, current client & Board referrals and brave financial investments. Flowing content to local media throughout the year regardless of any event, presenting AIESEC as a relevant

leadership consultancy. Consistency in high quality content generation for centralized messaging through email and digital marketing

(facilitated by AIESEC India). Avenues and channels for generating and showcasing engaging content that is externally relevant and resourceful. Right messaging in the right Target market: key essential for showcasing impact, for example how has an NGO

grown over a year by taking AIESEC interns, how has a company in a certain industry outdone another company through international human resource and showcasing it in the relevant industry, how ex students (AIESECers) of a college are running startups or are employed in a different country (case studies of EPs and alumni) and showcasing in the relevant college for increased brand presence and ELD Leads.

Making AIESEC externally relevant through events to communicate how what sort of Leadership does the world need and how are we actually developing it.

Leveraging from GIS for customer experiences (volume and quality) to capitalize on promoters and contributing more to results while identifying key detractor issues and servicing them (we care about customers is the message a customer needs to be clear on.) Our customers need to understand why we do things before we tell them what

we do

▪ Communication & Information Management

huge role or can a play a huge role?
