The Indo Global Mandiri University (UIGM) Student Association held Basic Organizational Training (LDO) for its new members on Wednesday (February 11, 2026).
The activity, which was centered at the Dekranasda Palembang Complex, was designed as an initial training agenda to strengthen the leadership capacity and character of students. This year, the LDO carried a special theme regarding the strengthening of personal branding, which is considered very relevant for students in building a positive, professional, and highly competitive image in the era of global competition.
UIGM Youth Advisor, Dr. Ir. H. Endy Agustian, S.T., M.Eng., IP., provided strategic guidance on the role of students as campus ambassadors. In addition to organizational material, participants were equipped with an in-depth understanding of how to manage their identity in line with academic values and social ethics. This activity is expected to produce organizational cadres who are not only competent in management but also capable of demonstrating strong personal integrity when interacting with the wider community.
“Every individual in this organization must realize that their communication style and daily behavior are a direct reflection of the quality of the institution you represent,” said Endy in front of the participants.
During the activity, Bujang Gadis UIGM members were invited to recognize their unique potential to be developed into a professional identity. Character building was emphasized so that students would have objective self-confidence and the ability to adapt to various formal and informal situations.
According to Endy, a strong sense of identity will be valuable capital for students when they enter the workforce or carry out their duties as campus ambassadors. Students are encouraged to become agents of change who bring positive influence through a well-maintained self-image.
“Your success in building a credible self-image will make it easier for you to influence your surroundings towards positive change,” he concluded. (andhiko ta)
