third by appeal i mean that we must use a folkorical image but at the same time something that people want to relate with we could easily go as indigenous natives but this would portray a country that is undeveloped mariachi for example is a cool image as it is representative of our music and it is globally recognized many things relate to mexico but not all are positive i would try to avoid shouts like tequila tequila as people could associate aiesec mexico more to being drunk and partying than to work and performance what would we say if a soviet country shouted vodka vodka or the us beer beer why would colombians shout we re the number one delegation instead 3 what is ic about ic is about coordinating the global network and strategy depletion as opposed to our other international event ipm where it is about strategy generation during it aiesec international launches initiatives delegates hold discussions on global and regional strategy and the global plenary takes decisions that affect our programs and operations each ic is different india for example focused in the generation of the 2015 vision kenya on the other hand was focused on the implementation of the programs and the launch of the new myaiesec.net it s common for ic to always have leadership development and regional connection sessions 4 in one phrase or two what is mexico s goal for ic 2012 gain aiesec country branding and bring back relationships partnerships rich strategic content and practical knowledge for our local operations externally gain a position among the network means that they will want to work with us talk to us share their gcps invite us to chair their conferences come to our conferences apply to our mc s take mexicans in their mc s send their eps to our tns and take our eps in their tns we reach this by being a coordinated professional and prepared delegation internally aiesec mexico wants to gain as much as possible from other countries to lead the performance among the region and the network we want to understand and share ideas that make our organization the best among aiesec countries this has to do with both global alignment and gcp sharing we must target however to bring back the most useful local strategies possible as they are the core and our bottomline 5 what are mexico s priorities to capitalize from ic 2012 we have several priorities that we can only get from ic strategic operational and instrumental i d rank them in that order precisely specifically like this:

1 strategy 2015 programs policies understanding these will be released during ic 2012 including using the net promoter score as our official mos for tmp and tlp 2 strategy 2015 ewa activities understanding and new global standardization e.g y2b will be a global standard now regulated and required more activities will be introduced as well 3 operational igip cooperations igip is the hardest program to grow and the one that uses best cooperations so it goes first ­ we must target high profile it provides such as poland india brazil and colombia 4 operational ogcdp cooperations ogcdp already grows fast but we need to improve our match/raised ratio and for such cooperations coupled with packaged xp s come are key 5 operational igcdp cooperations we need spanish speakers and they re in demand besides brazil is taking almost all of gcdp ep spanish speakers so cooperations are key for us 6 operational ogip cooperations we can target specific degrees and schools for potential gip country partners mainly for ap and cee in the it sector 7 instrumental positioning in the network as mentioned before 8 instrumental alumni connections with key global players 9 instrumental global partner connections with the ai team 6 what do you think happens or should happen in a cy meeting in my international conference experience they should follow the next steps i ve done this in kenya 1 identify potential supply and demand complementation e.g while the us has agricultural sciences potential mexico has agricultural sciences companies let s say monsanto potential to sell as we have that company and other similar ones targeted for this of course we must have ready our market segmentation we can know in advance what countries might have the potential to deliver 2 define industry target 3 define timeline for raising matching and realizing 4 discuss bottlenecks 5 assign partnership responsibles from both countries and agree on communication channels we can use podio or facebook for this for example usually this agreement is between mcvp s exchange but it also happens between nst s 6 schedule periodic partnership follow-up meetings this is hard with different time zones i have to say that despite not having an exchanger role i might have more experience than other candidates in setting this up 7 how does ic 2012 fit in your career plan i might apply for mcp next year if i attend ic it is likely that i find the motivation and ideas necessary to increase my potential success next year i might also not apply for mcp and still attending ic would make sense for my cp as i could take an mc abroad instead of staying in mexico again or even apply to ai 8 budget for attending ic concept cost who covers?
