Introduction
For the first time in its 60 year history, AIESEC connected over 800 AIESEC stakeholders from over 106 countries and from across generations- members, alumni and partner organizations. Purpose of the connection was not only to celebrate 60 years of activating youth leadership but also to look into the future how we as an organization can have collective impact and role model sustainable leadership. The event exceeded the expectations of many participants. Over 800 people were sitting changing circles, connected in thoughts and emotions and the walls were decorated with drawings from previous 60th anniversary events. Smiling faces, expectations, curiosity and many questions filled the room with enormous amounts of energy - one could feel the power of the AIESEC network. Our space for collective intelligence on sustainability engaged people to share their passion, concerns, and dreams. Partners Keynotes Speeches: Martin Wandmaker (DPWN/DHL), Fabio Barbosa (Santander Group), Kelly Michel (Artemisia), Oscar Motomura (Amana-Key Group), Max Oliva & Lotfi El-Ghandouri (IE), David Cooperrider (BAWB ) shared their provocative thoughts and examples of sustainable activities driven by their organizations. Agenda Design: The agenda was developed under the expert leadership of Toke Mller (co-founder of the Art of Hosting) and David Cooperrider (founder of the Appreciative Inquiry) in co-creative processes with members of the hosting team, the alumni body, AIESEC International, AIESEC in Brazil, as well as the Supervisory Group of AIESEC International. Delivery: A team of 15 highly qualified facilitators led the participants of the 60th anniversary event through a meaningful experience. Elements of the 60th celebrations: Conversations through cutting edge open space technologies Stories of leaders & organizations famous for their role-modeling approaches to sustainability Global AIESEC Awards (Alumni Hall of Fame, Entrepreneurship & Leadership Award, Contribution Award, Young Alumni Contribution Award) 60th Anniversary ceremony Brazilian Night Launch of MyAIESEC.net for alumni Harvesting: Four big flipcharts express what happened during the 3 days. The essence of conversations and speeches was captured through the innovative technology of graphic facilitation. The key messages are in the form of images, color, symbols and words. All resources are available on page 2. The graphic output of AIESEC 60th anniversary in Brazil, created by Adriana Ribeiro Jardim and Soraia Melchioretto, will be presented at Global Forum Latin America as disclosure Call for Action which will take place in So Paulo in the month of November 2008.

Friday- Inquiry into the strengths of 60 years of AIESEC that can be scaled up in working towards the 70th anniversary
On Friday evening, 200 alumni from over 45 countries met to celebrate the 60th Anniversary together with AIESEC members. Alumni were welcomed by Juan Cajiao, President of AIESEC International 2008/09, who was speaking about AIESEC Today. Emil Ivanov Global Alumni Relations Manager 2008/09 introduced the event and the priorities of AIESEC International for the next year related to alumni. After dinner, the common agenda of the 60th anniversary global celebration started. AIESEC members, alumni and partners met in the plenary.

Wow! ...the first thought on your mind after entering the space of the plenary... So powerful! Sitting in circles and looking into so many faces around What will happen? The expectations were so diverse but at the end every person had chance to create their own rich experience because every individual added a value and energy that was used to create A space for collective intelligence on sustainability. It was an astonishing experience.
The pictures and graphic drawings tell the full story. All resources are available on page 2. Brenda Schroeder, AIESEC International Alumni and the chair of the International Congress, introduced Fabio Barbosa from Santander Bank who shared his experience of implementing the idea of sustainable banking in Brazil. Fabio introduced sustainability as the overarching topic of the event and passed the word to David Cooperrider and Ante Glavas from the Center for Business as an Agent of World Benefit. David shared his thoughts and encouraged the crowd to act for a better world because he believes the solutions are out there. Ante guided participants through personal conversations, while individuals and groups were reflecting in an appreciative way on the following questions: What was your best experience of collaborative leadership? What are AIESECs strengths for magnifying sustainability? What are your visions of 2020 for a better World? For AIESEC? What will be the legacy of your leadership? Consider the smallest things with the biggest impact as well as the bolder things.

The business of businesses is sustainable business Fabio Barbosa The task of leadership is to create an alignment of strengths making a systems weaknesses irrelevant Every social and global issue of our day is a business opportunity in disguise Peter Drucker
The harvest is captured as graphic drawing, pictures, individual conversations and inspiration. Alumni and members are welcome to continue further conversations at the forums at MyAIESECnet. To make things happen requires proactive individual action.

Saturday- Connecting deeper to act more wisely

The day started with morning plenary where countries showed their presence with shouts and roll calls and energized the room. Then three partner organizations told their story of sustainable leadership. Martin Wandmaker from DPWN/DHL highlighted the need for connecting networks and corporations being the social organizations. Kelly Michel, founder of Artemisia presented her theory of economic and social cooperation that provides social solutions. Max Oliva and Lotfi El-Ghandouri from IE Business School encouraged individuals to act based on their passion. These values are very close to IE, which is developing social innovators and so increase the impact on society. These stories inspired, the examples opened new questions and the scene was set up for conversations around the broad topic of sustainability.

Toke Mller opened the space with explaining the principles, which helped participants to understand the process. Toke proposed the question of the day:

What questions, issues or projects do I care enough to explore now?

AIESEC Members and alumni had so many topics they were eager to host a conversation around. In the middle of the room was a stage with purple flowers, colored papers and pencils. Individuals with questions came to the stage, wrote down their questions and read it loud to the plenary assembled in massive concentric circles as a symbol of opening a conversation. Anyone sharing same passion was welcome to join. The room was buzzing with ideas and excitement. Some people cared so much for their topic that their voice and hands were shaking from excitement. Amazing! The topics were put on a wall. Over 50 spaces were ready. During three work sessions participants could move around different topics, join different conversations. At the end of the day many powerful thoughts and ideas were shared. Some of the conversations created commitments and individuals are making them happen after the event.

The harvest is captured in the graphic drawing, pictures, as well as individual conversations and inspiration.

Sunday- Inspiring conscious commitment to act sustainably

The Sunday was very exciting. It was about turning the conversations that matter into action that makes a difference.

Oscar Motomura, an incredibly inspiring and successful entrepreneur, well known for his sustainable approach, came to share a few thougths with the participants. Mr Motomura presented his Reflections on Ethics and the process of making things happen: effective implementation of solutions for critical sustainability equations. Deciding to act small because it is more comfortable is not ethical was just
one of the learning points he presented. The room was silent.The crowd of AIESEC stakeholders with diverse background is the right group of people realizing their dreams. The facilitators team energized the crowd with different exercises. People were excited. And than the question of the day was posted:

What action are you ready to commit to NOW?

Participants spent several minutes in silent reflection until the movement started. Individuals wrote their commitments on a paper, walked around the room to find people who would like to join them or who have the same desire for action. This created the next level of conversations when people actually decided to go and take that step to make a change. The floor was open for sharing the commitments laudly in the plenary. Who ever felt to speak came to the center of the circle and everybody else was watching the courage and listening to the diverse ideas. My commitment is to read more about CSR to get deeper understanding was one voice, and in silence, fifty other people stand up to support this person. You could hear the eagerness in the voice of alumni, members and partners telling I will do it! One group of people even prepared a song reflecting some of the ideas and sang it to the sound of a guitar. This was very powerful ending of the open space. Participants enjoyed working together in a very diverse group of AIESEC members, alumni and partners. Lots of ideas were born. The way how these three days were organized was new. Using the methodologies such as Art of Hosting and processes inspired by Appreciative Inquiry helped to provide the space where each participant could participate.

Letter from Global Alumni Relations Manager at AIESEC International

Dear alumni, dear AIESECers, It has been an exciting year of meeting old and new friends, an year of reconnections, an year of coming back to AIESEC, throughout the world. More than ever members and past generations are close to each other and more than ever, there are high expectations of what those connections will evolve to. More than ever before AIESEC has taken a stand to re-connect with its alumni and provide them opportunities to stay involved with AIESEC and the past year of efforts has been a clear sign to manifest this will. AIESEC has made a call throughout the world: I want to meet you again. After the moments of meeting again, all of us carry the moral obligation of strengthening those connections and extending them to more AIESEC fellows. Meeting each other is great, but staying together and capitalizing on those connections is what would really matter to each of us. Therefore, on behalf of AIESEC International, I invite you to celebrate not only the anniversaries we all share, but to celebrate every day being part of 60 generations of AIESEC. In the coming year AIESEC will continue its commitment to alumni engagement. We are now in the final stage of testing a brand new alumni module, which will upgrade MyAIESEC.net and hopefully will provide the needed platform and functionalities for you to be in touch with each other and with AIESEC daily. Throughout the development process AIESEC International has been working closely with different generation of alumni to ensure that their needs are reflected in the functionalities of the system. Only thus the 60th Anniversary will be just the beginning and we as AIESEC International team will be working for this. I hope you will join us in our efforts to let more people know about this new virtual meeting point, once we launch the system in October. Stay tuned! Best regards and meet you soon on the alumni module of MyAIESEC.net Emil Ivanov Global Alumni Relations Manager AIESEC International

Letter from President AIESEC International

Dear all, When our term started, I received a mail from a former PAI showing interest in coming to our office and share with us his perspective on what are the key challenges that AIESEC has to overcome in this years and some tips on how we could make it happen. His name is Bernd Thomas and he was elected PAI (Secretary General) on 1958. In AIESEC, he did four internships in France, USA, Nigeria and Tokyo. He was also the first AI Executive Envoy to Asia and, during his PAI term, he followed up the expansion initiative and fix the location of the AI Office. His AIESEC Career became the beginning of a path of success that lead him to share management responsibility creating the culture of the Volkswagen Beetle of the 60s and the building of the BMW brand as a market leader from the 70s to the 90s. Today he applies his experience to promote world-wide regional development by means of cooperative clustering through The Competitiveness Institute and Professor Michael Porter. Mr. Thomas ended up coming to our office and shared with my team his perspectives. Not surprising, some of those concepts are reflected in our plan. Furthermore, he also sponsors the Norman Barnett Bharat Bhasin Award whose impact we all had the pleasure to witness. I am committed to join Bernd Thomas and other like Victor Lowenstein, Jan Choplin, JJ Elkin, and 60 Generations of key AIESECers in a journey of individual achievement and cooperation with AIESEC. The door is open and I am sure that you are also welcome. Happy 60th Anniversary! Juan Cajiao President AIESEC International 2008/2009
