Dear members,
I have been for a while now given quite a lot of thoughts to the concept of the notion leadership, for which I am very pleased with when we talk about business leaders, as this issue has been my professional passion for several years. Directing the energy of co-workers towards a common goal and a determined mutual searching for a proper dynamic strategy are the topics for which I believe have to be necessarily promoted. In a heavy sea one needs a good captain with a great crew, nevertheless needs a motive and inspiration as well.
For this reason, I am delighted that we will in the new
issue of Yearbook that you may expect in the beginning of December, reveal you
the 12 business leaders chosen as the role models by the Leadership Committee
and by the both AmCham Young Professionals generations. We have, however within the Committee found
ourselves in a spiral of fear that leads us too often into a situation when we
simply do not recognize the best around us. Accordingly, I am glad that we have
through debating come to the following conclusion: YES, we have excellent
business leaders in Slovenia, leaders distinguished for their numerous positive
values and characteristics. Not only those on the list mentioned as I know that
there are many among you, our members, the role models of a successful practice
in several fields. Yet, when I observe the politics, in the time of the
pre-election campaign, I have to admit that within it the notion of leadership
does not give me such pleasure anymore.
Due to our desire for gaining security and disclaiming responsibility,
we wish for a different leader and not those representing contemporary
democratic ones. We either ascribe them the characteristics of superheroes or
simply do not like them. Accordingly - black and white?! Well, let` s be serious
since we do not live in a fairy tale! I sincerely expect that on December 2, at
the AmCham Business Brunch, we will have the opportunity to attend some
constructive talks with the politics and consequently the reflection about it
and certainly hope for the following conclusion: YES, we have excellent
politicians in Slovenia, politicians distinguished for their understanding of
Slovenia being on a significant turning point, politicians who confide in
cooperation and who know how to direct towards a common goal. Looking forward to meeting you very much as well, Ajša

3rd AmCham Young Professionals Meeting
Do you want to become a leader who exceeds expectations? YES! Our Young Professionals all agreed that the most important feature of the leader is ...
charisma - leadership charisma. When Mrs Lubej and Mrs Šušteršič, from Profiles International Slovenia, explained that no one has charisma and that leadership charisma is something that we can all learn, they were all amazed. Later on they explained which behaviors and characteristics make person a charismatic business leader. Through a number of role play situations we had come to a conclusion that we will all try our best to become a charismatic future business leaders which will inspire their colleagues to achieve common goals.
