Endeavor invited ten High-Impact Entrepreneurs from Egypt, Jordan, Mexico and Turkey to join its network at an International Selection Panel held in Cairo, Egypt last month.
“In Cairo, Endeavor selected an impressive array of entrepreneurs that are running companies that will not only change industries but also create value-added jobs that are necessary for any growing economy. We are delighted that our Jordanian entrepreneurs, Mohamad Haj Hasan and Yousef Shamoun from Akhtaboot (www.akhtaboot.com), were among those selected.” said Endeavor Jordan’s Managing Director, Carmen Saad.
AIESEC Jordan organized its National Leadership Development Seminar in Amman with the support of Akhtaboot - the Career Network, as Official Learning Partner for the year 2009.
The National Leadership Development Seminar is an important part in the education cycle of AIESEC Jordan, which allows AIESEC members, foreign AIESEC interns and AIESEC stakeholders to explore leadership in context to the current global environment while sharing knowledge about the organization and its vision.
Akhtaboot’s Career Planning session tackled a number of career development issues such as career planning, CV writing and interview skills, and once again the course proved to be an invaluable experience for AIESEC members, providing several effective tips on how to approach the job market.
