The golden rule of management: find a reasonable balance between the concentration of powers and their delegation

Former submarine officer Alexander Goncharuk is one of the most controversial figures among the top managers of Russian telecommunications companies. Goncharuk's supporters speak of his energy and charisma, grasp and attention to detail, while opponents criticize him for authoritarianism and harshness. It is also said that under his vigilant supervision it is impossible to steal. For a decade and a half, Goncharuk has gone through all the steps of the career ladder: from the general director of the Leader insurance company (the granddaughter of Sistema) to the president of the corporation.

Goncharuk knows how to deal with external enemies. When he was president of Sistema Telecom (AFK's telecommunications division), he gained control of MGTS, ousted some of the "objectionable" shareholders from MTS, and in four years knocked together many disparate companies bought by Sistema into a single conglomerate.

He also knows how to deal with objectionable people within the company: for example, having headed the electronic division of Sistema - Concern Scientific Center (now Sitronics), Goncharuk replaced 45 top managers. The third "horse" Goncharuk - geographical expansion. On his initiative, the leading Ukrainian IT company Kvazar-Micro and the Czech manufacturer of telecommunications equipment Strom Telecom were bought. Largely due to these acquisitions, Sitronics' turnover increased more than tenfold in two years.

And in early 2006, Goncharuk became the chief architect of the restructuring of the entire AFK Sistema. The rapid growth of the company made it difficult to manage, and there was a need to optimize the management system, clear the ranks of inefficient employees. It's a common thing, but also much more responsible. “If in Sitronics or in Sistema Telecom it was at least theoretically possible to make a mistake, now it is out of the question,” says Alexander Goncharuk. So far, it works without errors.

NEW STANDARDS

The golden rule of management: the ability to listen - when you hear the interlocutor, it is easy for you to make decisions

The problems that different time arose at the "Russian Standard", Dmitry Levin calls growing pains. In 2002–2003, the bank had difficulty financing a rapidly growing business. “Customer needs grew faster than the bank's financial capacity,” recalls Dmitry Levin. He personally took up building a policy to attract resources: investor relations, a strategy for working on financial markets. To date, the volume of attracted funds of the bank is about $5 billion.

Around the same time, the bank made a serious strategic miscalculation. “In 2003, we paid too much attention to serving our customers through the offices of other banks,” recalls the CEO of Russian Standard. “But when one shop at the factory is not yours, failures begin.” From that situation, Levin deduced the iron principle “do not give your clients to other structures” and began to develop his own network. He managed to turn the bank from a purely Moscow into a federal one, without buying regional players. Now the bank has about 130 branches in various regions, by the end of the year Dmitry Levin plans to increase their number to 280.

“We managed to create a bank that is the industry leader and can quite successfully compete with foreign banks,” Dmitry Levin is proud. And he immediately admits what has not yet been done - to form a loyal client base of Russian Standard. This is what Levin is going to do in 2007, forming a powerful product line of credit cards, offering new programs in consumer and auto loans. As for the requirements of the Central Bank to disclose the effective rate on loans, which the regulator has been introducing since July 2007, Dmitry Levin does not see any special problems for business with its introduction. “We will start declaring it as soon as possible,” he promises.

The golden rule of management is to be adequate to the prevailing circumstances and fair to people.

“In order to convince people to buy a bottle of soda, they still need to create such a need in them,” says Vladislav Paulus. The manager knows a lot about this: the leader of the rating SF in the oil industry he had a hand in building the Coca-Cola empire in Russia. For almost ten years, he launched factories and trade branches of the company in different parts of the country.

In the early 2000s, Yukos shareholders decided to radically change the system for selling their petroleum products in Russia. They were looking for someone with Western experience and a fresh outlook. The choice fell on the "coca-kolschik" Paulus. When faced with the oil industry for the first time, the manager was horrified: “It was a real Soviet collective farm.” First of all, Paulus created a centralized pricing system - earlier, the divisions of the oil company independently determined selling prices. Moreover, he allowed managers to spend their excess earnings on their own bonuses. As a result, in the first six months, Paulus earned $300 million for Yukos in addition to the previous volumes and took the post of vice president.

When Khodorkovsky's company began to collapse under the pressure of the state, Oleg Deripaska invited the manager to lead a new oil project that the businessman is creating around the Afipsky refinery. And here Paulus used the strategy from FMCG. He modernized production, increased the number of channels for the supply of petroleum products, and then got rid of intermediaries in ports. As a result, the company's turnover grew from $350 million in 2005 to $1 billion in 2006. And this is just the beginning: Deripaska planned to create a vertically integrated holding a la RussNeft. Paulus has already bought a number of promising fields, and is looking at others. It turned out that extracting oil is no more difficult than building soft drink factories.

REAL MASTER
Eldar Razroev considers himself a lazy person, therefore he does not like unnecessary movements. “I prefer a car with automatic transmission,” he says. “Or better yet, with autopilot.” Text: Maxim Kotin

Ideal manager: Razroev E.A.
The golden rule of management: if you can’t, but really want to, then you can

Evgeny Chichvarkin in 2004, he invited the commercial director of Sonic Duo to establish an "autopilot" in the company. The founder of Euroset used to manage both the car and the business in manual mode, but the turnover of $320 million forced us to think about business processes. The creation of the structure became the task of the manager.

“The company was like a partisan detachment that broke through behind enemy lines,” Razroev recalls. “The business grew quickly, the wheels were changed on the go.” Not everything has changed yet, but Chichvarkin is already pleased with the course of affairs. “Razroev thinks deeply about his thoughts, experience sticks to him, he is cheerful and evil,” says the founder of Euroset. “For him there is no word“ no ”: the harder it is, the better for him.”

The president of the company felt extremely good not only when he "combed" the guerrilla company before a possible IPO, but also when working on another project - the creation of an MVNO. “We offered the Big Three operators to buy traffic from them, and they asked how we were going to position ourselves,” Razroev recalls. “It became clear that people live in the astral plane.” Managers of SMARTS live in real life, with the help of which Euroset recently became a virtual mobile operator. Now Razroev prophesies an apocalypse for the current leaders of telecom, as engineering companies cannot compete with marketing “virtuals”. “This is a virus,” Chichvarkin echoes. “And we opened the test tube.”

Razroev wanted to “open a test tube” back in Megafon. After the virtual project is fully operational and the company becomes public, it will be possible to take a break. “You can’t breathe in all the time, you have to breathe out sometimes,” he says. The president of Euroset already knows what to do "on the exhale": he has a patent for neutrino elementary particle detectors. “If you build a connection on these particles, it will be limitless,” Razroev dreams. “Then the signal can be received even underground, even in space.”

FOCUSED MARKETING
“It is more difficult to work in Russia than in Europe,” says Swede Henrik Nenzen, who has headed the local division of the Ford Motor Company for seven years. “The consumer changes very quickly, and the company must always correspond to his preferences.” Text: Dmitry Kryukov

Ideal manager: Ingvar Kamprad, founder of IKEA

The golden rule of management: build a team that knows everything about today's and future consumers

Guessing preferences Henrik Nenzen, who previously worked as a brand manager for Ford Focus in Europe, has learned to perfection. Focusing on the target audience former owners Zhiguli and used foreign cars, he offered her the right price - about $ 15 thousand for a new complete car. In addition, Nenzen stimulated the proposal with a profitable loan program: today the same Ford Focus can be bought at 4.9% per annum, the amount of the down payment is 40%, that is, approximately equal to the cost of AvtoVAZ cars, which, according to analysts, is by no means accidental.

As a result, according to the results of recent years, foreign Ford cars are the best-selling in Russia (in 2006, almost 116,000 of them were sold). But the marketing genius of Henrik Nenzen to some extent surpassed his talents as a production manager. Demand for Ford is so great that buyers have to wait for cars for six months, while for other foreign manufacturers this process usually takes two to three months.

Colleagues are becoming more and more of a problem for the Swedish manager. The success of Ford in Russia was largely due to the fact that he was the first to open his production here. But now other European and Asian auto giants have announced similar plans. Thus, in order to hold the palm, Henrik Nenzen will have to think about expanding production capacity. And this will obviously require a solid investment from the parent company, which is not doing flawlessly: the net losses of Ford Motor Co. in 2006 amounted to $12.7 billion.

However, one of his strengths that help him in his work, Henrik Nenzen calls "the ability to explain to the parent organization in Europe what actions are required in the local market." And he has a serious argument: expert opinion, the turnover of the Russian division in 2006 increased by 38%.

FAITHFUL TO RUSLAN
Reserve Lieutenant Colonel Gennady Pivovarov cannot imagine his life outside transport aviation. Therefore, proposals for a new job are always refused. Text: Andrey Krasavin

Questionnaire:
Favorite book: Alexander Stepanov "Port Arthur"
Ideal manager: Martirosov Andrey Zarmenovich, CEO of UTAir
Golden rule of management: do not rush to make the wrong decision

The question of a profession for Pivovarov was resolved long ago. He was born in the family of a military pilot, spent his childhood in a military town near Zaporozhye and always dreamed of following in his father's footsteps. “Serving in the army was prestigious back then,” recalls Gennady Pivovarov, “and even more so in the Air Force.” Already at the age of 33, he became deputy commander of a transport aviation regiment, the air fleet of which consisted of the largest aircraft in the world - the An-124 Ruslan. However, six years later, his military career ended: he was laid off.

What to do next? “I didn’t have any special options,” explains the general director of Volga-Dnepr. “There are only three airlines operating Ruslans (Russian Volga-Dnepr and Polet and the Ukrainian Antonov ASTC.– SF), but I didn’t want to leave transport aviation.”

The main business of Volga-Dnepr is charter flights on the An-124. But three years ago, the company began to develop regular cargo flights on Boeing aircraft. For a year and a half (since April 2005) as CEO, Pivovarov was able to make a new line of business profitable. If in 2005 Boeing flights were subsidized by Ruslan charters, then last year there was a profit: the plan for regular flights was exceeded by 50%, and the total turnover of Volga-Dnepr increased by 55% to $ 725 million .

“The secret of his success is his excellent knowledge of technology and experience in managing people in high-risk conditions,” says Volga-Dnepr President Alexey Isaikin. The CEO has an authoritarian management style, but he helps his subordinates grow. When a top manager leaves the company, they do not look for a replacement on the side. “We are growing new leaders within the company,” says the CEO.

And Gennady Pivovarov himself is not looking for options on the side. "Headhunters, please don't worry," he chuckles. In the end, he devoted half his life to transport aviation.

Salaries of top managers of the largest state-owned companies in Russia are usually not disclosed. Previously, the public had to rely only on the investigations of journalists and data obtained from high-ranking officials, which happened extremely rarely.

According to the decree of the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation D. Medvedev, all directors of state corporations are required to open public access to information on income. However, after some time, companies with the status of OJSC were declared commercial. As a result, it turned out that the top managers of these companies are not employees state structure, and ordinary entrepreneurs, and the requirement to disclose their earnings falls under the "violation of trade secrets."

The population, of course, was outraged by this turn of events. But a compromise was found: CEOs of companies that involve private shareholders should report only to the government. But, despite this, some officials decided to make their declarations public, and in relation to many other top managers, there is enough information from the investigations of journalists to add up big picture their income.

The annual bonus of the head of a state-owned company in Russia is assigned in the amount of up to 150% of the annual salary.

Often the salary and bonus remuneration for the head of a state-owned company is determined not by the state, as is commonly believed, but by the decision of the Board of Directors. The amounts that will be paid to top managers usually depend on the top management. An additional fee for participation in management, business trips, compensation for renting a dwelling, money for training, etc. is assigned to the general salary. Annual bonuses, remuneration for the implementation of important projects, as well as on the occasion of awarding by the state or department, are added to this. Also compulsory pension insurance, life-long free treatment (including for the family), a payment that is equal to six months' salary in case of dismissal.

Naturally, it's a shame that all this applies to state-owned companies working in the field of oil and gas, and not to entrepreneurs who created and implemented one of the new developments. The statistics of Russian monthly salaries in oil and gas companies are as follows:

• well driller - 45,000;
• installation operator - 55000;
• chief technologist - 65000;
• geophysicist - 68000;
• geologist - 80,000;
• drilling engineer - 120-150 thousand rubles.

Salaries are very impressive for the scale of the country, even the smallest salary is much higher average earnings across Russia. Employees working in the field of oil and gas, in terms of their income, are second only to bank employees. But we must not forget that these works are carried out on the outskirts of the country, in most cases in the Far North, where the cost of products is much higher than in the places inhabited by people.

And to get paid management team, it is necessary to overcome an enormous distance. The average salary of a company director is about 600,000 rubles, and the salary of a member of the Board of Directors is 1.17 million rubles. (this is a monthly, not an annual salary).

If we compare the salaries of Russian oil workers with foreign colleagues, it turns out that in the first case, the salary in this area is 150 thousand rubles, which is about 2.6 thousand dollars. How is it in the west? World leaders in terms of average wages among employees of the oil sector are:

1. Australia - 14 thousand.
2. Norway - 13-13.5.
3. New Zealand - 11 thousand.
4. The Netherlands, Canada and the USA - 10 thousand each.

Usually in other states the level of wages is much higher than the average national salary. It is necessary to take into account not only the size of wages, but also the volume of extraction and processing of raw materials, as well as the amount of profit. For example, the Russian state corporation Gazprom Neft produces 79.7 million tons of raw materials during the year, processes more than 43.1 million tons per year, and the profit for this period is 110 billion rubles (1.8 billion).
It was not possible to find out exact information on the salaries of top managers of Gazpromneft, but if we focus on the salaries of top managers of the main company in Gazprom, then approximately it amounted to about 312 million rubles, which is 5 million dollars per year, or 420 thousand .dollars every month.

The average wages of ordinary employees were given above, amounting to 45-80 thousand rubles, which corresponds to 700-1300 dollars. On the territory of Kazakhstan, there is a similar state-owned company - KazMunayGas - with an average salary of an operator of underground workover of wells of 2.1 thousand rubles.

Engineering and technical personnel receive an even higher salary, with the volume of extracted raw materials in the range of 23 million tons per year and the company's profit of 92 million rubles.

The heads of oil companies in Azerbaijan have a salary of up to 200 thousand dollars a month, in Iran - less.

On closer examination, in Azerbaijan, as in Russia, the export of gas and oil is one of the main sources of budget formation. The state company SOCAR dominates on the territory of Azerbaijan, in which many dream of getting a job. But, despite the scope of the company, salaries in it are far from cosmic. Office employees, in terms of rubles, receive within 5 thousand. People who have to work on drilling rigs on the high seas have up to 45 thousand.

Almost all top managers of this company belong to the category of “their own”, and, in addition to the basic salary, receive additional income “in an envelope”. According to unofficial data, all top managers and vice presidents of the company receive about 200 thousand dollars every month. By general standards, this is quite modest. Salaries of top managers in Russia, according to the Forbes rating:

1. I. Sechin, chief executive Rosneft company - 50 million dollars.
2. A. Kostin, director of VTB - 37 million.
3. A. Miller, Chairman of the Board of Gazprom - 25 million rubles
4. G. Gref, Chairman of the Board of Sberbank - 18 million rubles
5. V. Yakunin, President of the Russian Railways Society - about 15 million

Their foreign colleagues receive on average approximately the following amounts:

1. Brian Roberts, CEO of telecommunications company Comcast - $31.4 million
2. Jeffrey Beukes, CEO of Time Warner - $32.5 million
3. David Zaslav, Head of Discovery Communications – $33.3 million
4. Robert Iger, director of The Walt Disney Company – $34.3 million
5. Philip Dauman, top manager of Viacom - 37.2 million.

As can be seen from the data provided, Russian top managers are significantly inferior in salaries to their Western counterparts. However, at the same time, they provide their companies with the same profit as American firms. But the responsibility Russian leaders much bigger and more serious. In most cases, the staff in domestic companies is several times higher than in the West, but at the same time, the field of activity is dangerous and strategically important. This is not one of the many channels, but banks, railways, industry and energy, etc.

Forbes has published its latest rating of the highest paid top managers in Russia. This rating has been published for five years.
During this time, total payments to the heads of Russian companies increased by 2.3 times.
