...a Move

Intro..

...a cak i deca znaju da se do Neba ne dizu Naduvani baloni,
nego oni punjeni nekom posebnom hemijom...
E, o "Hemiji" je i rec...


Da probam da vam opisem kako izgleda imati 7 prijema , umesto kao ranijih godina jedan, sumnjam da bih uspela ...

Ili da probam da se setim kako je izgledalo pre dobrih 5 godina sa druge strane , isto tesko...

Ili da vam pisem kakvu priliku imate da preokrenete desetine zivota...milsim da to znate

ili davam kazem da oko 200 ljudi sada spava ne znajuci sta ih ceka za neki dan, mesec zahvaljujuci AIESECu i vama...

Ili da vam pricam da znam koliko ste se trudiili da sve izgradite za novu generaciju...mislim da svi osecamo trud i energiju...

Ali ipak zelim da vam ispricam neku pricu pred spavanje pred neki vazan momenat za vas i za nas..



Bila jednom jedna osaoba A : Danasnji dan je provela pijuci 3 kafe i razglabajuci o svim tracevima estrade, odgledela ja bar 3 emisije od kojih su 2 spanske serije, izblejala je na faksu sa par likova razmenjujuci naravno utiske o seriji i slusajuci predavanja koja ne zna bas cemu ce da mu sluze jer uzgred ne zna bas ni cime bi se bavila posle studija ali naci ce se vec neki poslic. Uvece je verovatno ( skoro sigrno )provela u nekom klubu izigravjuci nesto sto nije i ne treba da bude da bi bila makar nesto postigla u drustvu...i zaspala je i ne razmilsjjuci o tome sta je i ko je danas a kamoli ko ce biti sutra..verovatno isti lik ko danas
Ko je ovaj lik?

Ne znam..ne znam po cemu bih ih zapamtila
Bila jednom osoba A.A.: Danas je ustala zadovoljna i zahvalna na brojnim mogucnostima koje ce joj novi dan pruziti. Sa osmehom i entuzijazmom se sprema da jos jedan dan posveti ispunjenju svojih ideja i sireci energiju sa svojim timom energicnih prijatelja postize nove uspehe. Posle ce praktikovati verovatno neku novu aktiivnost ( npr zongliranje ili neka nove rec japanskog..), vece provodi u kaficu na reci npr. sa prijateljima svih profila i velicina i boja i cuce nesto novo, neki novi stos , neku novo milsljenje, neku novu vrednu uspomenu. Odlazi da spava zadovoljna sto je svaki dan korak napred i pomisilice : I AM making a diffrence!!
Ko je ovaj lik?
Znam
Aiesec Alumni
Koji je PUT izmedju ova dve price?


Pa eto samo da vam se zahvalim na trudu i radu i idejama i nergiji koju ulazete u novu generaciju od samog pocetka. Zadovoljstvo je rditi na tako velikoj stavri sa tako sajnom ekipom

Zelim nam svima sjajan pocetak nove generacije

osmeh

Try not to become a man of success but rather try to become a man of value.
Albert Einstein



Intro

Vece u MC stanu, jedne od onih veceri kada bas pocinje ono sto ja nazivam frka. Iako znam da frka vec traje kod mnogih od vas i da nikada nije ni prestajala :) cini mi se da bas veceras osecam potrebu da podelim svoja osecanja sa vama. Pocecu sa jednom od recenica koje govore sve o meni... You really can change the world if you care enough. Ja iskreno verujem da mozemo sve i da je sve moguce samo ako dovoljno zelimo. I ma koliko ponekada cini se veliko, nemoguce i daleko, treba samo da imamo ljude koji podjednako veruju u sve to.

Gde smo sada. Dobro pitanje :) U centru svog mandata, u onom trenutku kada se lome stvari, onda kada u trenutcima kao ovima pokazujemo sta smo i ko smo i koje su nase snage, vrednosti i uverenja. Sada se lomimo i kao pojedinci, sta cemo, kuda idemo, sada je vreme realizacije, sve ono sto smo mislili, planirali, sanjali vreme je da stavimo sve to u akciju. Nema velikih ideja ima samo velikih realizacija. Trenutak je i da pokazemo kakvi smo kao timovi, koliko tudjih snaga koristimo da nam pomognu sa nasim slabostima, koliko verujemo nasem timu, koliko smo jedno... Vreme je da pokazemo sinergiju nasih timova, da li znamo gde zelimo da idemo kao zemlja, kao AIESEC. Na kraju krajeva ovo je trenutak kada odlucujemo ko ce voditi nasu organizaciju za nekoliko godina. U vasim redovima sede danas mladi ljudi... neko od njih je buduci OCP, CCP, PAI... Mozda se slazete da je protekla nedelje najinspirativnija i najludja u godini.

Neverovatno je kada smo jutros na MC sastanku seli i krenuli da pricamo o make a move treninzima na kojima smo bili. Ne mozete ni da zamislite koliko smo bili puni neke dodatne energije, energije koju ste podelili sa nama, i koliko smo kreativnije i zanimljivije razmisljali. Kao da smo videli sve o cemu smo pricali i razmisljali od pocetka mandata.

Dalje... Mi znamo gde zelimo da idemo, i znamo sta zelimo on nas samih, od organizacije i naseg drustva... I jedino sto ostaje jeste kako... Po meni nema vremena ni mesta dvoumljenju, nema ispitivanja. Covek koji me je apsolutno inspirisao i pomogao da shavtim cime zelim da se bavim u zivotu je David Polly – Chair na ICju – vec sam pisala o njemu. I mozda su neki i culi za pricu koju zelim da vam ispricam ali prosto to je jedna od mojih omiljenih... Da li znate koliko zive leptiri?... Upravo tako, samo jedan dan. Ali zasto zive samo jedan dan, cemu to? Sta mogu da urade za jedan dan?... Oni cine da svet bude lepsi...

Sinoc smo se secali pocetka mandata i pricali o tome sta smo zeleli od mandata, kao nesto najvaznije, bottom line koji mora da se desi... a to je Uzivajmo u svakom trenutku... I shvatili da uzivamo, i ucimo iz svakog trenutka...

I kao zakljucak... zasto? je moje vecito pitanje. Zasto ljudi uopste rade bilo sta u zivotu. ili ne rade. Sto se mene licno tice ja uzivam... u svakom trenutku, u razgovorima sa ekstremno pametnim i kreativnim ljudima, sa ljuduima koji imaju toliko strasti prema zivotu i radu, u chatovima, skype razgovorima, kafama... Volela bih da svako ko ikada zeli da pricamo samo pusti mail... Ne postoji ista na svetu sto moze zameniti kada se za samo nekoliko trenutaka potpuno skapirate sa nekim...

Pa... You can say I am a dreamer but I am not the only one...

4. Visit to Indjija

Two weeks ago we got an invitation from Indjija municipality about consultancy role in their coming employment fair. Sergio and Stefan were guests of Mr. Stanko Gagic (head of commerce department) and Mr. Petar Filipovic (head of mayor’s office). We had a meeting where we have consulted them about future fair organization, shared our experiences from career days and made very strong contact with this municipality (even arranged some football game :-))
The most interesting fact about this musicality is when you come there, there is not much difference from other cities in Vojvodina (but only on first look :-)), this city is I can freely say Serbian Switzerland, by municipality organization and commerce situation. They have most efficient public administration, not only in Serbia, but in the region, with one stop shop concept in administration to system48 (system where each person can report any problem, and they get solution in maximum 48h of reporting it), strong IT system, www.indjija.net with Microsoft partnering, where you can get any permit or legal document online!
Beside that they have a lot of investors, with over 300 millions of euro Greenfield investments in the past few years (out of 1,500 millions invested total in Serbia), and the interesting fact is that they have lack of faculty graduates to solve investors employment needs!!!
Also, they are very active in the region, presenting our country and bringing new investors each day.
We were extremely impressed by their progress, and we see a lot of room for cooperation, beside employment fair, mostly on exchange side and potential to build stronger relations with most progressive municipality in Serbia.


5. A Dialogue: Private Sector Support for Serbian Higher Education

Organized by the Institute of International Education (IIE),
September 26, 2006. Niš, Serbia
