Moderator: Anatolii Tsirkun, head of the educational project “Agrokebety”
Speaker-mentor: Oleksii Stetsenko, Sales Director of Syngenta’s plant protection products division in Ukraine.
Key questions of the lecture:
- Business is always done not by companies, but by people
- The business of large corporations is a balance between risk and profit, which is shifted in the direction of reducing risk
- The complexity of the business of consumables is that demand is influenced by factors that change daily, and it takes months and sometimes years for production productivity to change
- Due to the fact that Ukrainian agribusiness is so concentrated, the supplier always has a question about the method of distribution: directly or through intermediaries?
- The type of business organization directly affects its work. The execution of monthly and quarterly plans is much more critical for a PLC than for a private company
- The speed of communication is more important than the quality of the product
- “Corporate culture eats strategy for breakfast”
