"If you wanna go fast, go alone. If you wanna go far, go as a team."

This way or that way...


Being an LCP is a lot about guidance. Both professionally and personally, members and VPs come to me a lot more now. I could even say that this is one of my measurements of success (MoS): people feeling that they can trust me and knowing that I'll be there for them. Sometimes though, I end up having to give guidance I wish I didn't have to give. Realigning the strategy of a portfolio in order to get better results without hurting the creator of the proposed strategy = not so much fun.. It's all about making people understand you're doing it for them, for AIESEC and especially not to hurt/insult them...

More and more, I am starting to realize of have people make me realize that I became LCP. It's only one letter more than when I was a VP but that single letter makes a HUGE difference. Everyone's problems are mine too and everyone's joys are mine too. I'm just coming to the understanding that people go to their LCP a lot more when the situation is problematic than when everything's fine to spread the joy. Lesson of that story: you must go and spread the joy all over yourself instead of waiting for people to do it.
