TABLE OFCONTENTS

Alain Amarante LCP 2014-2015

To my potential successors,

I’ll be brutally honest: I love being LCP. It is without a doubt the best role I ever took in my AIESEC career. As LCP, you have the power to turn your dreams for the org into a reality. You have the distinguished privilege of being the figurehead of one of the largest, most diverse and most unique organizations on campus and in the world.

Yet, I also faced the worst crises in my entire lifethrough this role. The job truly is a test of your character. It will continually challenge your ideals, beliefs and leadership.

Halfway into my term, I have never thought ofgiving up. I handled all the challenges thrown at me with utmost grace. Simply because I knewthat at the end of the day, all the tears, stress and sacrifices were worth it. We were changinglives.

And now it’s your turn.

Cling on to your ‘why’. It will get youthrough all the hardships you’ll have to face in this application process. Dream big not only for the world, not only thisorganization, but also for yourself.

Best of luck to you all!
