The industrial sector of Kazakhstan, due to the unique natural resources and historically established specialization, determines the growth of the economy of Kazakhstan significantly. The chemical industry, machine construction, transport, infrastructure projects have always been distinguished by a high management level, yet new challenges of the global economy require new competencies. The modern leader is required to be:

The unique geographical position of Kazakhstan makes it open to both the consumer trends of the Asian region and the European one.

All this requires retailers to optimize business processes and management structures, create and configure effective procurement, logistics and production systems. Changing customer preferences, the emergence of new generations of consumers makes brands pay more attention not only to the product itself, but first of all to marketing communications, clear brand positioning and focused work with them.

  • Resilience – the ability to withstand uncertainty
  • Client orientation – the ability not only to see a product or service through the eyes of a client, but also to set up processes within the company so that the client and his needs remain the focus of attention at every stage
