AIESEC Experience is the core product of AIESEC. Different facets of AIESEC Experience are sold to different stakeholders who customize their own experience.
@XP as an experience & how it is lived needs to continue to evolve & improve, which would ensure our product leadership. The absolutes of @XP are an exchange & leadership experience & a global learning environment.
The objectives & scope of our core processes need to be standardized across the network. The processes should be customizable to the reality of countries, which would ensure our product leadership on the ground, at the LC level.

We have to create a prime quality experience for every stakeholder.
We need to have an extremely strong & reputable brand which attracts people & organizations to AIESEC & @XP. We need to
reach out & educate the markets about our product – the AIESEC Experience.
We need to be always sure about our product portfolio & the value that the products offer. The portfolio continues to evolve as we find more opportunities with @XP, but we need to be comfortable with the idea of everyone not wanting our products & not wanting to associate with AIESEC.
Key principles of ‘Product Leadership’ Strategy
1. Develop a mindset of innovation amongst the members
2. Lead & educate the markets about the use, need & benefits of new products
3. A risk oriented management style, developing an attitude of self-management amongst the members
Product Leadership as our STRATEGY
Does it give you focus & direction to your organization’s activities?
Does it help define what not to focus on, what not to do?
Does it aim to create a unique competitive position in the long-run?
• Why can companies charge a higher price if they choose product leadership?
• What are the risks?
Product Leadership: A corporate perspective
• The value added by the uniqueness of the product a premium.
• The higher price will more than cover the extra costs incurred in offering the unique product.
• Because of the product's unique attributes, if suppliers increase their prices the firm may be able to pass along the costs to its customers who cannot find substitute products easily.
Firms that succeed in a differentiation strategy often have the following internal strengths:
• Access to leading market research.• Highly skilled and creative product development
team.• Strong sales team with the ability to successfully
communicate the perceived strengths of the product.
• Corporate reputation for quality and innovation.
• The risks associated with product leadership strategy include imitation by competitors and changes in customer tastes.
Think about yourself…
• When you first joined AIESEC, you bought AIESEC’s product – AIESEC XP.
Is it a unique product for you? How unique?Have you experienced superior quality? If yes,
how? If no, why?
Now you’ve become LCEB. As the people who develop our product,
Have you put innovation into developing our product?
Have you been educating our market about our product?
How do you ensure your members are enjoying high quality experience?
Because we choose Product Leadership, does it mean…
• We just need to educate the market to buy the thing we currently have?
• We can ignore market needs?
An example:

Now think about your LC
Think about what are the products/initiatives/actions/projects in your LC that you consider to be aligned with the product leadership strategy?
