Challenges faced with Non-AIESECers • Lack operational & strategic AIESEC knowledge Challenges • Needs to be integrated into AIESEC’s culture • Can easily loose drive to work
How to fix those challenges? SU summits SU coach • Why of AIESEC & SUs • Strategic & operational knowledge • Plan & timeline • Experienced member, leader or recent alumnus from the LC • Day to day communication • Supports in planning & implementation Communication channels Have LCVP SUD • LC meetings • Conferences attendance • Interns interaction • Track different SUs • SUPs or SU coaches report to him
Different reporting systems In big entities SUs should report to LCs In small entities SUs could report to MC In both cases an MC SU responsible is recommended e.g MC manager
