To whom it may concern,

I have had the chance to work with Cosmin Sandu in the Executive Board of AIESEC Craiova in the term 2011-2012 and the experience that I had gives me the ability to strongly and trustfully endorse him for the position of MC Vice-President Sales of AIESEC in Romania for the term 2013-2014.

From the experience that I have had as Vice-President Talent Management, working with Cosmin in the Executive Board, I can say that he is one of the persons who are capable of seeing AIESEC as what it truly stands for, a person that has the courage to challenge the status quo, a person that is not afraid of taking risks in order to find the best ways to achieve the purpose of AIESEC.

As a member of External Relations and later on as a Vice-President, Cosmin managed to push the local committee further, through his own example, being out in the corporate market every day and finding new partners for AIESEC Craiova. As a VP, he managed to bring partners from companies with the same mission and vision of our organization, partners that gave us not only financial support, but also knowledge and perspectives, partners that he involved in the life of our organization.

As an EB member, Cosmin has always been the realistic character, keeping us on track and analyzing our ideas and strategies from all the perspectives. He was the one coming up with initiatives to support our organizational issues, initiatives that would increase our progress and help us grow even more, as a local committee. Furthermore, he was able to identify bottlenecks in terms of our performance not only on his area, but problems of the local committee in general.

For me, personally, throughout my entire AIESEC experience and especially throughout the EB term, Cosmin has been a real support, bringing an outside perspective and helping me find the proper direction and focus of my job. I could add here that through his own actions, he inspired me to work harder, to push my limits and stop finding obstacles.

As a Local Committee President, he managed to drive the LC further, to create a team out of his Executive Board and to bring a more international perspective in AIESEC Craiova, by bringing back ideas and mindsets from EuroCo and International Congress.

Taking everything into consideration, I truly believe that the qualities that he possesses, his vision and mindset and the commitment towards AIESEC’s sense of purpose make Cosmin the perfect candidate for the position of MC Vice-President Sales of AIESEC in Romania and I trust that you will give him the chance to demonstrate that.

Sincerely,

Alexandra Coandă
