Do It! Dear LC Zurich member,
On October 17th, Benno Marbach joined our LCM and delivered a speech on
networking. He shared his views on building and maintaining networks and
why they can be very important in some situations.
This week you will have the opportunity to do some networking yourself.
Because Do It is right around the corner and there are people from all over
Switzerland coming to this event taking place in beautiful Fiesch. So be sure
to take this chance, do some networking, get to know people, learn
something valuable and most of all – have tons of fun!
All the delegates should have received an Information Booklet with all the
important information regarding the time of departure, what to bring and
what not to bring, etc.. If this is not the case, please contact your VP.
The Comm Team is very much looking forward to seeing all of you next
Thursday. Until then: Have a nice week and get some sleep, because chances
are you won’t get a lot of it at Do It ;)
Your Comm Team
Thu, 01.11.12 – Sun, 04.11.12 Do It
Right now, it’s all about DO IT! One of the biggest national conferences is about to start in a couple of days. We already had the Conference Preparation LCM last Wednesday where the newies had a crash course on ‘how we AIESECers do conferences’ =). They got introduced to the AIESEC culture and they also got the chance to practice our infamous ROLL CALL. Oh, let’s not forget about our shout! Do you
still recall it? Here’s a little reminder:
White and Blue, coming through,
there is nothing you can do Oh – Shout louder!
Zurich’s got the POWER! Oh – Shout louder!
Zurich’s got the – what –what – POOOOOOWER!

XPS – The OGX People hold their first XPS yesterday. They had an awesome time and are very
happy to welcome the 10 new EPs who are really excited to go abroad and skip the cold
snow outside. For all of the other AIESECers there's still a chance to join them and
participate at the next XPS on December 1st. Contact the OGX-Team.
They’re waiting for you!
Team meeting – The COMM Team had it’s first Team Meeting last Thursday, where
the newies had the honor to get to know the MCVP COMM in person already: Oana Pascu
stopped by the office and shared some basic AIESEC-knowledge with the newies and also
the more experienced members. This sure was a great preparation for DO IT! In addition
to that, the main tasks were distributed so that each member now knows what kind of
area/project he will be working at/for.

OGX
BSCC event – Gwen Jettain, Valentin Degen and our VP ER Julian Osborne have been
invited to a BSCC Event about CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility). The relationship
between BSCC and AIESEC is at a high and the ER Team is looking forward to similar
occasions in the future. At the event they had the chance to meet very interesting people
and to expand their network.
ER
Career Days – The Career Days Team is on fire! There are a lot of things that need to
be done within the next weeks: For now, the team members are busy doing ‘sales’,
meaning contacting companies and trying to win them over so that they participate in
our Career Days. During their 2nd meeting last Tuesday, Nadja Zürcher, former OCP CD,
delivered a Sales Workshop. The team members are highly motivated and working hard
to make CD a success! Furthermore they’re trying to cooperate with other student
organizations to promote CD even more. They also see Do It as a chance to get in contact
with companies and to motivate them to work with us! Good luck guys!

Our LCP’s experience at EuroCo 2012:
• Q: Ivo, you spent the last couple of
days in Romania at EuroCo, an
international conference. Can you tell us
what it was about and what did you do
there?
• Ivo: EuroCo is an international conference
for all LCPs of Western-, Central- and
Eastern Europe and North America. It is
facilitated by MCPs and AIESEC
International. In 7 days we discussed and
learned a lot about the bigger picture and
the purpose of AIESEC. We took a look at
our current situation, our goals and what is
needed to get there. Then we went in some
more strategical topics like the positioning
and management of an LC, program
improvement and LC development. We also
had a full day of leadership development
session for our role as LCP and some
workshops from global partners.
• Q: How many people attended the
conference? Were there any awkward
situations when spending time with
people from so many different
nationalities?
Ivo: We were around 200 LCPs from more
than 40 different countries. We talked and
networked with a lot of people from very
different backgrounds and cultures.
It is very interesting to hear about their
situations and culture and to compare the
realities of our LCs, awkward situations
included!
• Q: Tell us about something funny that
happened at EuroCo?
Ivo: One of the funniest moments was, when
the LCPs pushed the President of AIESEC
International to dance the Gangnam style
during a break, because he looks so much like
Psy. Video can be found here:

• Q: What was the most memorable
thing/moment at EuroCo?
Ivo: For me the most memorable session was
about leadership styles and motivation. It was
hold by Dey Dos, who is quite freaky and
looks like a hippy, but he is also former PAI
and a very inspiring speaker. He gave us a lot
to think about and triggered very valuable self-
reflection. At the same way all his crazy
actions and inputs made the sessions very
funny and memorable.
• Q: Are there also roll calls at EuroCo?
Ivo: Hell yeah, there are plenty of roll calls and
shouts on international level. See the brand
new swiss LCP roll call:
