АВ restaurants: the formula of success
November 17, 2015. Almaty Management University (earlier IAB) held the meeting of students with executive director of AB restaurants company Askar Baitassov. The event was organized by Career Planning Centre and Alumni relations jointly with “Management, Entrepreneurship and Marketing” department.
The meeting was informative: Askar, of course, didn’t open the big secret to students when told that the formula of businessman’s success is diligence and purposefulness, but energized them with his positive energy, hunger for activity and focus on success. In addition, the guest shared with students information about how to make the career in such a company as AB restaurants and how to start your own business in the sphere of restaurant business.
Following Machiavelli’s footsteps…
November 18, 2015. Almaty Management University (earlier IAB) held free master class of practitioner trainer-consultant, specialist in the field of strategic management, system of sales and clients’ service building Andrey Galunin on the topic of “Technologies of management on Machiavelli”.
The master-class was organized for member companies of the National House of Entrepreneurs of Kazakhstan. Among the listeners were managers of such companies as Inteco SG operating LLP, VTB Bank, “Kommesk-Omir”, KazakhTeleCom and others.
The topic of seminar, of course, aroused the interest of the participants. It would seem, how medieval politic and philosopher who thought that the end justifies the means may be related to modern businessmen? But he may be and the most direct. Because management methods and principles of Machiavelli, adapted to modern realities, may be used in business management either.
“Something that is described by Machiavelli and something that we will work on in this master class are technologies of Power”, - noted A.Galunin in the beginning of his performance.
The master-class was intended for managers, owners of business and those, who plan to become so. Listeners considered such Machiavelli methods as: strategy of cruel and non-popular measures application; difference between ethics of the first manager and ethics of personnel; necessity, expediency and pragmatism when performing promises; love and fear as basis mechanisms of management, warning and disclosure of conspiracies and collusions; assessment of efficiency of assistants and many other.
The master-class that gathered more than 40 representatives of huge Kazakhstan companies in one classroom had another aim either: at the end of the event Career Planning Center of AlmaU received an opportunity to discuss with listeners the question of internship and employment of our students in companies of invited entrepreneurs.
