LEADERSHIP

In AIESEC we believe that Leadership is the fundamental solution to achieve peace and fulfilment of humankind potential. In order to get closer to this vision by 2030, we need young people to step up as leaders to drive positive societal change. Therefore, it is imperative to

understand who do young people consider as their role-models as leaders and which characteristics do they value the most.
