Head of Russian Sberbank German Gref is a real professional. One of the world’s biggest banks reaps hefty profits under the leadership of this talented executive. Furthermore, its depositors fully appreciated changes in the bank’s services introduced during Gref’s management.
German Gref has the guts to criticize the Russian government freely, not fearing to lose his job. That is because he is a true professional. Needless to say that many headhunters would like to net such a valuable top manager. Thus, Gref received numerous job offers from big companies, including Gazprom. Moreover, he is known as a good negotiator and a sort of person who can be trusted implicitly.
Perhaps, these Gref’s personal qualities were the reason why Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko asked him to expand his business in Belarus. Lukashenko admitted that he is always glad to meet German Gref and that he stands ready to discuss any plans and ideas with him. Remarkably, Sberbank is already a big player in the financial services market in this country.
