swilar has won the Russian Business Guide. PEOPLE OF THE YEAR award
On March 26, for the seventh time in a row, the international magazine RBG, with the support of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation, held an award ceremony for the winners of the “Russian Business Guide. PEOPLE OF THE YEAR” award. Over the years of its existence the award has gained wide popularity and support among the business community becoming a significant award for domestic business, and has made an important contribution to the popularization and support of the business community. The status of the award is recognized both in Russia and abroad.
The award winners are not just successful entrepreneurs, public figures and opinion leaders but also true innovators who make a significant contribution to the development of business and the economy of Russia.
The swilar group of companies was recognized as the winner in the nomination “Best HR and Outsourcing Services Provider”.
The Managing Partner of swilar group Daria Pogodina highlighted the specifics of work in this area in an article in the latest issue of RGB:
“We see that in the conditions of general turbulence company management wants and must focus on solving operational business problems and at the same time is forced to develop new strategies or make adjustments to the plans being implemented. Of course, this leaves its mark on the expectations of companies towards their business partners: not just to work out tasks or, in the case of, for example, accounting outsourcing, to reflect documents but to point out proactively certain nuances and offer solution options. This fits perfectly into our concept of support, and this is precisely why, according to reviews, our clients value us. Of course, one of the most important areas of the past year was the constant monitoring of the situation with international payments and the search for the best solutions for clients. Performing, among other things, the functions of the treasury, we monitor and analyze the situation in this area with special attention.” We invite you to read the full article at the link.
We thank the organizers of the award for the high assessment of our work!
