Hello,
here is my essay for the chevening. Two are done, and I am satisfied with end result, as your comments made them only better!
Relationship between Russia and China reminds me a bridge, which is being constructed from the two sides of the river. Both countries are making great steps to get closer, but nothing is useful without supporting framework. I want to become this kind of the framework.
My short career plan for nearest 3-5 years is very clear. I plan to work for one of the International Business Consulting companies. I believe, after I finish my Master courses in the UK, I will have the required knowledge and skills. I want to focus mostly on business negotiations and lobbying Russian interests. I plan to get a promotion in 3 years and become a head of the department, my educational and work background, my network and leadership skills are making it realistic. Here I need to mention, that I plan to help Russian companies to enter Chinese market, however, I will mostly focus on attracting Chinese companies in Russia, as Russian Economy needs investments. For now most of the Chinese companies are trying to work on the European part of Russia, however, there are several problems to be solved: Chinese companies want to invest mostly in strategic industries, like electricity and water supply, agriculture and real estate and that meets a lot of misunderstanding and even paranoia from the people, which is obvious as many projects are signed to get the short-term profit rather than long-term. I plan to redirect the interest of Chinese companies from the European part to other parts of Russia and make them work within the innovation industry. This is required as Russia has a large research potential, however, researches leave country for better conditions. Attracting Chinese companies will let us create better conditions for researchers and Chinese companies will reduce their R&D costs. I believe, that my knowledge will let receive more mutually beneficial investments with minimum side effects.
In 10 years I see myself as a professional in business consulting and working with China. That will allow me to work independently or start my own business. I believe my experience would be useful not only in Russia, but in any country, as Chinese companies are one of most active investors in the world. However, my main goal is to work with the Government for the optimization of the current business conditions and supporting Russian part of New Silk Way project. I believe that if the project wold be realized correctly Russia can become a bridge, which connects the EU, the UK and China.
In the end, I want to tell, that one of my key-dreams is to share my knowledge and experience with others and follow in father's footsteps and become a professor. So I would love to run some open courses about Chinese business and management in 10-15 years.
