When the Russian economy moved to a market track, the government needed appropriately trained managers. The training of specialists takes a certain amount of time. For the management team to act purposefully and harmoniously, an adaptation period is also required. Mikhail Anatolyevich Abyzov, an entrepreneur and manager, “a minister without a portfolio,” ascended the career ladder slowly and thoroughly.
Starting conditions
American writers who have observed the development of the capitalist economy have noticed that people who were born into poor families achieve significant success. The biography of the Russian official Mikhail Abyzov fully fits into this classic scheme. The child was born on June 3, 1972. The boy's parents, ordinary Soviet workers, lived in Minsk. At school, Mikhail studied well. He took part in public events, Komsomol meetings, went in for sports.
The head of the family died suddenly when Mikhail was barely ten years old. At all times, children have a hard life without a breadwinner. The teenager took on any job to bring a pretty penny into the house. At the age of 15, he worked all summer in a student construction brigade in the north. At that time, he was given a very substantial sum of money - three thousand rubles. Mikhail knew well how his classmates live and what goals they set for themselves. He could only rely on his own strength.
In high school, Abyzov won the math Olympiad. He, as a capable and promising student, was invited to a specialized boarding school. At the end of his studies, Mikhail was automatically enrolled in the first year of the famous mechmat at Moscow State University. It was not possible to complete education from the first call. Circumstances developed in such a way that the young man had to go into business. In 1991, Abyzov "amassed" his first capital on the resale of special equipment.
Government heights
Experts and analysts note that in the early 90s Abyzov was not tempted by quick and small earnings on the resale of things from Turkey. As a calculating and forward-thinking person, he started supplying products and components to large enterprises of the military-industrial complex. When the privatization of state property began, Abyzov was able to acquire controlling stakes in large energy companies. The career was going well.
The successful businessman was noticed. Chief reformer Anatoly Chubais invited him to manage projects at RAO EU of Russia. For several years he has been managing large energy and construction companies. In 2011, Abyzov was assigned to head the Public Committee of the Russian President's Supporters. After a short period of time, Mikhail became an adviser to Vladimir Putin. A year later, he was appointed minister without the formation of a special department. In the media, this position is called "minister without portfolio."
At first, the personal life of a successful entrepreneur and a “free” minister was shaped like a human. Mikhail married a classmate. Counsel and love reigned in the house. The husband and wife produced three children - two sons and a daughter. But in 2016, Abyzov got under the tail and left his family. Married a leggy stewardess. Naturally, they had their own child. How events will develop further, time will tell.
