Automobile production in Russia is considered a priority industry. According to her condition, experts judge the overall development of the economy in the country. Sergey Anatolyevich Kogogin holds the post of General Director of KAMAZ PJSC. For him, this is not only an honorary and monetary position. By and large, without any pathos - this is his fate and vocation.
Formation and growth
The centuries-old practice convincingly proves that a person with certain abilities can succeed in organizing production or in politics. Objective reality, which is completely indifferent to persons of any rank, eliminates incapable, incontinent and incompetent applicants. Democratic mechanisms are widespread due to the fact that they allow you to identify a person who can benefit society. The life path of Sergei Anatolyevich Kogogin can serve as a clear confirmation of this.
The biography of the future head of the famous Kama Automobile Plant says that he was born on November 16, 1957 in a peasant family. Parents lived in the village of Big Keys in the territory of Tatarstan. A boy from young nails was taught to work at home and in the field. Hooking potatoes, caring for livestock for Sergei was commonplace. At school, the boy studied decently, but after the eighth grade he decided to enter the aviation technical school, which was located in Kazan. At the same time he studied at the local engine-building plant. In 1977 he completed his studies and decided to graduate at the Physics Department of Kazan State University.
The production career of a certified engineer continued at Zelenodolsk Engineering Plant. Kogogin worked conscientiously. Organization of the production process requires special knowledge. In any case, you have to strictly abide by the current regulations and be creative when achieving planned targets. It is very important to listen and properly respond to proposals made by the direct performers. The leader is always faced with the task of achieving more at lower costs. All these principles and approaches, Sergei Kogogin strictly implemented.
As stated in the famous literary work, the basic principle of action in organizing production was based on moderation and accuracy. When a wave of "democratization" swept through the country at the end of the 1980s, Sergey Kogogin took over as director of the plant. For almost five years he kept the company afloat. During this period, the Soviet Union ceased to exist. Collapsed long-term business ties. Companies suppliers of component parts were closed. New players appeared on the market, usually foreign ones. Director Kogogin, as he could, "resolved" conflict situations.
On the political wave
In 1994, it was the turn to "make" a political career. The city of Zelenodolsk needed competent management. It turned out to be very simple to destroy the current structure of Soviet social security. By the mid-90s, the situation was such that there was simply not enough resources to maintain kindergartens, schools and hospitals. Housing and utilities needed repair. Roads and adjoining territories were in poor condition. Revenues to the budget decreased significantly. In this situation, Sergei Anatolyevich was elected head of the city administration.
The new chapter had to use the full potential of its official and private capabilities. Kogogin made full use of administrative measures in conjunction with a creative approach. The first action streamlined the tax collection process. Then mutually beneficial relations were established with existing enterprises. Favorable conditions were created for the creation and development of small business structures. Targeted activities to restore order and stimulate revenue in the city budget brought the expected effect.
In 1999, Sergei Kogogin was invited to work in the government of Tatarstan. He holds the post of Minister of Economics and Industrial Development. At this post, he enjoys a panorama of the economic landscape far beyond the borders of his region. An important direction in the activities of the Ministry was the support of city-forming enterprises. Small business also contributed its modest contribution to the budget process. Kogogin paid special attention and everyday care to the automobile giant. Competitors from Europe and China in the literal sense of the word began to clamp KAMAZ in a vice.
