Our Approach

Our aim is to give people the capacity and desire to have a positive impact in society - a person we refer to as a “change agent.” Together with AIESEC Platform, this is our approach to creating young people with desires, skills, and attitudes to make a difference in society. That is the AIESEC Difference.

AIESEC Experience

The following diagram shows the different steps in being an AIESEC member. 
All members go through a formal introduction to the organization and then begin to take on responsibility in some area. 
They then have the option to take on leadership, work abroad, or both.
The final step is to head to the future - to take the skills, inspiration, and networks from AIESEC to have a positive impact in society. This flow and the opportunities within it were built on the following principles.

Taking an Active Role

AIESEC will provide the opportunities and some support, but it is ultimately up to the individual to make the most of those opportunities.  Each individual must take responsibility for his/her experience within AIESEC.

Developing Self-Awareness and Personal Vision

AIESEC supports young people in clarifying and expanding their ambitions through mentorship, personal vision exercises, an inspiring environment, and providing intense experiences that challenge their view of the world and their role within it.

Increasing Your Capacity

Through conferences, work abroad opportunities, and the management of our offices, we provide young people with the opportunity to increase theoretical knowledge in a wide-range of functional and soft skills and the opportunity to put it into practice.

Building a Network

Through conferences, learning networks, innovative on-line platforms, and a growing alumni network, AIESEC provides young people with the opportunity to create a strong and global network to support them in their personal and professional pursuits.

Challenging Worldview

Through intense experiences such as conferences, working abroad, and engaging in diverse environments, AIESEC “shakes up” the way young people see the world.

 We are YOUNG LEADERS…

Today’s leading organisations recognise that in a competitive global environment talented people will have a significant impact upon results. The long-term survival of business is crucially dependent on accessing talented young leaders from across the globe that can join an organisation and create success through the right combination of skills, innovation and attitude. For over 50 years AIESEC has been providing organisations in all sectors of society with young people who are striving to develop themselves into socially responsible, entrepreneurial, culturally sensitive, active learners. These young leaders have a goal of driving change globally and within the organisations they work for, through their own positive leadership.	"AIESEC is an effective advocate for young people and their aspirations for the future of their communities. It helps form responsible citizens with a worldwide vision. Its members are interested in actively participating, as future leaders in the economic world, in building a better society, helping identify and address issues that affect the well-being of communities and global society."
	Federico Mayor Director-General
	"Our generation is the last to reach top management without international experience. AIESEC is creating tomorrow's leaders today by providing an unsurpassed opportunity to gain a global perspective and achieve cross-cultural appreciation."
	David Fagiano Former President & CEO

Through our International Exchange Program we offer YOUR ORGANISATION the opportunity to ADD VALUE to your organisation through ACCESS to these YOUNG LEADERS.

AIESEC offers more than just a chance to achieve key organisational objectives. AIESEC empowers youth with the necessary skills and understanding of forces shaping the world around them, creating a powerful group of tomorrow’s leaders. We achieve this vision while believing and acting upon our organisational values. Our values define the culture of AIESEC in Malaysia and the behaviours of our people, giving us unity of purpose as we achieve our mission: by developing individuals we contribute to our communities with an overriding commitment to international co-operation and understanding.
