Anyone can make a career out of family ties. It is much more difficult to achieve the set goal using your own strength and knowledge. Timur Kulibayev holds high positions in the economic sector of Kazakhstan.
Starting conditions
Erudite people know that a significant part of the territory of the former Soviet Union was part of the empire of Genghis Khan. It was in the old days. After the collapse of the Soviet state, Kazakhstan gained true state and economic independence. By historical standards, this happened quite recently. However, by the current moment the country has already developed a stable structure of society and state institutions. National politicians and entrepreneurs have grown. Timur Askarovich Kulibayev is one of the leading businessmen and public figures.
The future manager was born on September 10, 1966 in the family of a major leader. Parents lived in Alma-Ata. My father worked in the Council of Ministers of the KSSR. Mother taught biology in high school. The child showed natural abilities from an early age. He began to speak Kazakh and Russian with equal ease. When Timur was seven years old, he was enrolled in a physics and mathematics school. In 1983 he received a certificate of maturity and went to continue his studies at the Faculty of Economics of the famous Moscow State University.
Professional activity
In the early 90s, specialized education allowed Kulibayev to take a responsible post in the structure of the State Planning Committee of Kazakhstan. With the beginning of the transition of the country's economy to the market basis of functioning, the young specialist had to expand his sphere of competence. He was closely involved in the formation of the oil and gas complex. Timur had to solve organizational issues and prevent the formation of corruption communities. In 1999 he defended his Ph. D. thesis on the topic "Optimization of the enterprise management mechanism in market conditions."
By the middle of the 2000s, a situation had developed in Kazakhstan when many experienced managers sought to organize their own business. Kulibayev saw and knew well how employees of state enterprises live. In order to control the processes of restructuring and development of the country's economy, he proposed to create a special fund called Samruk-Kazyna. A similar structure operated successfully in Singapore. As chairman of the fund, Kulibayev negotiated with Russian colleagues on partnerships in the oil and gas sector.
Novels of personal life
Kulibayev's administrative career was quite successful. He represented Kazakhstan at international forums and congresses. Timur has received honorary awards from the governments of Kazakhstan and Russia.
Much is being said and written about Kulibayev's personal life. The reason for this is his marriage to the daughter of the first president of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev. His middle daughter Dinara married Timur Kulibayev back in 1990. The husband and wife raised two daughters and a son.
