Car production in Russia is considered a priority industry. According to her condition, experts judge the general development of the economy in the country. Sergey Anatolyevich Kogogin is the CEO of KAMAZ PTC. For him, this is not only an honorary and monetary position. By and large, without any pathos - this is his destiny 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, weeds out incapable, unrestrained and incompetent applicants. Democratic mechanisms have become widespread due to the fact that they allow identifying a person who can benefit society. The life path of Sergei Anatolyevich Kogogin can serve as a clear confirmation of this.
In the biography of the future head of the famous Kama Automobile Plant, it is said that he was born on November 16, 1957 in a peasant family. Parents lived in the village of Bolshiye Klyuchi on the territory of Tatarstan. The boy was taught from a young age to work at home and in the field. Hilling potatoes, caring for livestock for Sergei was a familiar thing. At school, the boy studied decently, but after the eighth grade he decided to enter the aviation technical school, which was located in Kazan. Simultaneously with his studies, he worked at a local engine-building plant. In 1977 he completed his studies and decided to get a higher education at the Physics Department of Kazan State University.
The industrial career of the certified engineer continued at the Zelenodolsk Machine-Building Enterprise. Kogogin worked conscientiously. The organization of the production process requires special knowledge. In any case, you have to strictly adhere to the current regulations and be creative when reaching the planned targets. It is very important to listen and properly respond to the proposals that are expressed by the direct performers. The leader is always faced with the task of achieving more with less cost. All these principles and approaches were strictly followed by Sergey Kogogin.
As stated in the well-known literary work, the basic principle of action in organizing production was based on moderation and accuracy. When a wave of "democratization" swept across the country at the end of the 1980s, Sergei Anatolyevich Kogogin took over as director of the plant. He kept the company afloat for almost five years. During this period, the Soviet Union ceased to exist. Long-term business ties collapsed. Enterprises suppliers of component parts were closed. New players appeared on the market, as a rule, foreign ones. Director Kogogin, as best 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 easy to destroy the current structure of Soviet social security. By the mid-1990s, the situation had developed in such a way that there were simply not enough resources for the maintenance of kindergartens, schools and hospitals. The objects of housing and communal services required repair. Roads and adjoining territories were in a deplorable state. Budget revenues have dropped significantly. It was in this situation that Sergei Anatolyevich was elected head of the city administration.
The new chapter had to use the full potential of his official and private capabilities. Kogogin used administrative measures at full power, combined with a creative approach. The first step was to streamline 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. Purposeful activities to put things in order and stimulate revenues to the city budget have brought the expected effect.
In 1999, Sergei Kogogin was invited to work in the government of Tatarstan. He holds the post of Minister of Economy and Industrial Development. In this position, he opens a panorama of the economic landscape far beyond the borders of his region. Support of city-forming enterprises has become an important area in the ministry's activities. Small businesses also made a modest contribution to the budget process. Kogogin paid special attention and daily care to the automobile giant. Competitors from Europe and China in the literal sense of the word began to clamp KAMAZ in a vice.
Director's chair
To represent the interests of the state in the KAMAZ joint-stock company, the Minister of Economy Kogogin was introduced to the board of directors. All knowledgeable entrepreneurs and officials knew what contribution he made to the preservation and development of the car plant. When a vector for stabilizing the situation was outlined in the country, a real opportunity arose to oust competitors on Russian territory. In the spring of 2002, Sergei Kogogin was appointed General Director of the KAMAZ Automobile Association.
Until recently, Sergei Anatolyevich Kogogin remains at the head of the enterprise. Information about his leadership work regularly appears in the media. In 2017, the President of the Russian Federation awarded him an honorary diploma. The director's personal life is also no secret. He is married once. The husband and wife met on the student's bench. Raised and raised two sons and a daughter.
