BEE stands for “Board Management, External Relations, Expansion” as official and incisive description of the tasks of a president of ELSA. But what’s behind this?

Board Management

The President acts like an “engine” and is the strategic coordinator of the Association. He has to be able to motivate its members and board constantly and should be informed about the different tasks of his board, all in common agreement with his fellow board colleagues.

External Relations

One of the main tasks of a President is taking care of external contacts. The President represents the association externally and it is his job to advertise ELSA to the public. He represents ELSA on official or festive occasions and is in this respect the highest representative figure of his board.

Expansion

In addition, the Presidents takes care of the acquisition of new members and – as President of ELSA Germany – supports new Local Groups during the founding phase in all relevant questions ensuring a smooth integration to the network.

One of the most important projects of my term in office is the focus on our cooperation with the Association of German Jurists („Deutscher Juristentag“), or DJT. The DJT exists for more than 150 years and meets every other year. During this time current legal issues are discussed and solutions of problems are quested. In the future ELSA shall have the opportunity to develop own problem solution under professional guidance and present these on the upcoming meeting of the DJT in Munich in 2012.

I was always inspired by the exchange with people of different cultures and languages. ELSA offers the opportunity to come together with young people from different countries and exchanging thoughts and ideas to find common opinions and solutions on different matters.
