2. Providing medical care for children with serious
illness isn’t always enough to restore their smile and
their joy of living. Caring for them and their relatives
is also essential. Today, despite the presence of
numerous associations dedicated to children, many
hospitals do not have the means to offer them a
lifestyle friendly and full of life, financial resources
are a priority for treatment.

3. Yes’Poir
It is to overcome this lack-of that Yes’Poir, a non-
profit organization was created. Indeed, in order to
bring happiness and joy in the lives of these children,
seven teenagers and I have led the association, in a
spirit of support and listening. Therefore, we chose
to build our project around three main axes:

4. Renovating a
playroom:

5. Organizing
activities for
children:

6. Relaxing
workshops for all
the mothers:

7. This whole experience was an inspirational journey.
As a matter of fact, at the beginning of the year, the
opportunity to take charges presented itself: I was
nominated Vice-President of the association. It was
the perfect time for me to put my leadership skills
forward. And I did.

8. My overall job consisted of finding volunteers to help
us put in place activities for the children as well as
their mothers, to find financial donations, and also to
find sponsors that would help us carry on with our
project. Also, my duty was to advertise our
association through a website, social networks,
brochures…

9. Being the vice-president of Yes’Poir enabled me to
further develop my team spirit, and to jungle with
different point of views. Indeed, our team was
composed of 8 young teenagers from different
countries. Therefore, new ideas, different points of
views to carry out our project coming from individual
of different cultural background were the best ways
to get quality results. In addition, working with other
talented individuals and assimilating new visions and
ideas was for me a positive step for my professional
growth.

10. Throughout the year,
taking part in an
association permitted me
to prove my abilities to
work under pressure and
to meet deadlines. Each
week, I had to take up an
ambitious challenge.

11. To conclude,
At the end of the year, we could all read joy in the
faces of the children and it was the best feeling in
the world.These children went from being sick to
happy thanks to our dedication, our love and our
ambition.

12. How would an IE Master’s Degree program help me
strengthen or improve this competence?

13. I am convinced that an IE
Master’s Program will help
me strengthen my
knowledge. Therefore, I will
gain the ability to improve my
management skills that I will
use in different situations in
different projects in
enterprises.

14. Also, studying at IE would be a great opportunity for
me to deepen my innovative perspective and thus to
precisely apply my creativity to business
management. In addition, this prestigious school will
help me broaden my network, meet people, create
relationships and keep these relationships for the
long term. Finally, entering IE, would be the best way
for me to master business management.
I believe that the leader I am today will definitely
benefit from an IE Master’s Program.

15. Thank you for your
attention.
