Global Leadership Day: 5 reasons to join

This year, AIESEC will host its first 100% online international event. Global Leadership Day is an initiative to gather young people around the world – organization members or not – to discuss innovation and the importance of youth leadership

For us, leadership is the fundamental solution and it can be developed in anyone. If you are between 16 and 30 years-old and care enough about the future to believe you have a role in the solutions to create better social and working environments, this event is for you. If you don’t, this event is also for you. Join us and understand how youth leadership can bring positive change to the world we live in. Here are five more reasons why you can take benefit from this event:

Leadership and social impact

  1. You care about world issues

In AIESEC, we place our confidence in youth as the key to a better future. Global Leadership Day is a brand new event for our organization with the idea to unite young people across the world who are willing to learn more about youth leadership, positive impact, and taking action. Many discussions such as racism, access to healthcare systems and workers conditions are on the spotlights during the last weeks and months. If you are interested in any of these topics or other ones related to world issues, GLD is going to be an opportunity to understand how you can make a difference and be part of the solution. 

2. You don’t have to pay or travel 

We all know travelling is a dangerous activity at the moment. Due to the pandemic, many countries closed their borders and life is slowly going back to normal in some places. But Global Leadership Day will be held online, streamed in 4 different time zones, and it is free. This is an opportunity to gather youth from all around the world to discuss topics related to leadership despite social isolation policies. We expect to have young people from all continents with us sharing different perspectives. The schedule includes activities like keynote talks, workshops and panel discussion.

Self-development and global networking

3. It’s an event made by youth for youth

AIESEC is the largest youth-run organization in the world. We are in over a hundred countries spreading the importance of youth leadership. Our mission is to engage young people to build a better future. Global Leadership Day is your chance to learn more about our organization and how you can get involved and contribute to our work. Also, we always have fun during conferences because of this part of being young!

4. You don’t want to miss the opportunity to listen to high profile speakers

AIESEC has big partners around the world who will help us create our first online global conference. Featuring high profile speakers, we will have the chance to listen and talk to extremely qualified professionals and leaders. Names like Terence Koo, COO at News Perform, and Sarah Endline, Entrepreneur from The Havard Business School, will be joining us. If you want to know more about them and other speakers, check Global Leadership Day official page

 5. You care about self-development 

Join an event like this, learn from the best, share your thoughts and perspectives, and have chances to create international networking. Be introduced to leadership-related topics, show interest for our organization, and understand more about current events and how they can impact your future. We already have 4,000 people join us for this event. It is a great opportunity to meet new people and your chance for networking with contacts abroad. This can be by far your best quarantine weekend!
