Let's start with great news about AIESEC in Belgium. AIESEC in Belgium and AIESEC in Egypt just won the award of the Most Connected national PwC partnership of 2006. Both countries were winning as they both have very strong relations with the firm.
As I only left AIESEC in Belgium a few weeks ago, I feel very happy to be able to see with my own eyes how the efforts of Elie's team and my team are recognised.





Right now, the InBev workshop just ended and it was a big success with over 50 people actively participating. We started with a short introduction by Jos Duijsters, Vice-President People Continuity, about InBev and its talent management systems. We learned that InBev has 2 pipelines to attract new talent. One is the InBev Trainee program and one is the AIESEC program. The AIESEC program was characterised as a small speedboat taking you to big responsibilities through an international experience. I have to say that so far I am enjoying the ride.



In the second part of the session, Chris Paden, Director for Talent, was presenting 3 interactive case studies in which delegates could work individually and in teams, and assess how they are performing on skills like lateral thinking and dealing with complexity.



After the session we needed at least half an hour more to answer the many questions. If you are at IC and you would like to talk about the InBev relationship in your country, approach me or Vladan, our coordinator, to book a meeting or just party with us in the evenings.
