out is that I love this organization and for that point in my life I cannot imagine my future without being in AIESEC. When application for LCP was released I was thinking for a very long time if I should apply. I made my final decision two days before New Year Eve. I spend dozens of hours to make this decision. I talked with many people, including my family. Decision which I needed to undertake was between great opportunity and great opportunity. This what should decide is answer for a question “What is better for me right now?” This is a part in which I need to confess to my personal failure: I decided because of ordinary causes such us not paid job, lack of accommodation, being too old. Those small things brought me to a place where I forgot about my development and actual “why” of our organization. I realized that it was wrong decision at General Assembly while first round of elections. The vision of not using this amazing opportunity which I have in the back of my head since I joined EB made me terrified and decided to apply no matter those small things.
How do you understand the role of LCP? How will you shape LCP role in 2013/2014 in order to maximize on your term? First what comes to my mind while thinking about LCP role is setting direction based on vision in which Local Committee will aim. I believe that it is a pillar of building anything else in Local Committee. Starting from building EB team, through guiding LC, LCP role itself as role model, other leaders and finally ending on the culture of LC. Without having a clear vision for LC everything can collapse as it happened in the past in our LC. From my perspective other important role of LCP is connecting mentioned direction with direction of AIESEC Poland and AIESEC International. LCP is a bridge between LC and MC. The role of LCP is to build this bridge and making it as solid as possible. Next thing is creating and leading EB team and assuring them working conditions, high performance and personal development. Creating EB team culture and awareness of the responsibility of role models in LC. Shaping Middle Management and its role in next extremely important point of LCP role. By creating it and transforming to members we can be calm about understanding of the role of our organization and transparency connected with EB and Leaders work. Role of the LCP is to be actual role model by himself. Giving the inspirations to others, motivating and being truly responsible leader. Being LCP also means to me creating and being a representative on local events, among AIESEC Poland and internationally. I believe that the most crucial in upcoming term is creating clear vision which connects all the elements of LCP role in one consistent, great working body which is Local Committee.
