Nikolai Sherstnev urged organization leaders to work on finding mechanisms to improve production efficiency as part of a personnel day.

The head of the region believes that the fulfillment of the tasks set for the main indicators of enterprise development depends on the level of professional qualifications of personnel. Therefore, today we need not passive managers, but proactive and competent ones, capable of improving the organization's activities. Hence, extreme diligence in selecting candidates for leadership positions.

The experience of **Dmitry Fomin** as the first deputy chairman of the committee for architecture and construction of the regional executive committee will be in demand at **SE "Vitebskoblselsstroy"**. From now on, he is the head of this enterprise. As no one else, he knows the nuances of the construction complex and is focused on results, noted the deputy chairman of the regional executive committee Vladimir Belous, characterizing the managerial potential of Dmitry Alexandrovich. The appointee highlights three important cores for the prospective development of the organization: to expand the range of services provided, to increase the volume of construction and installation works, and to participate more actively in tenders. The manager also understands one of the important requirements of the head of the region: every element in the large production chain must be calculated and verified through the prism of financial and economic return.

The portfolio of tasks for **Dmitry Samuskov, appointed General Director of OJSC "Vitebskoblresursy"**, is similar to this. A 5-year experience as deputy chairman of the Novopolotsk City Executive Committee will help to assess the scale of the upcoming work and increase the resilience of the enterprise's economy.

The Housing and Communal Services Department of the Glubokoye District has been entrusted to Yuri Linkevich, who has worked here as chief engineer for the last 3 years. The head knows that the organization has many concerns at any time of the year, both planned and unforeseen. Therefore, he considers the rule justified: the quality and completeness of the population's life support with communal services, as well as the safety of all technical systems and equipment, ultimately depend on the clarity and coordination of work. Among the priority areas outlined by Yuri Cheslavovich are the modernization of boiler houses and heating networks, and the improvement of courtyards. It is also necessary to work on reducing costs. It should also be taken into account that maximum cost savings should not negatively affect the quality and volume of services provided.

The creation of prerequisites for the effective management of OJSC "Mayak Vysokoye" of the Orsha District has been entrusted to its new director Oleg Makarevich.

— Only modern approaches are needed in crop production and animal husbandry. You cannot use technologies from twenty years ago. If you want to keep pace with the times, implement the latest developments, — Nikolai Sherstnev urged the new director of the organization.

The heads of agricultural enterprises "Mishnevichi" of the Shumilino District Mikhail Tikovenko, "Chernevichi" of the Glubokoye District Vladimir Babich, "Ivansky-Agro" of the Chashniki District Igor Moroz, whose contracts have been extended, are focused on increasing labor productivity. It is no secret that organizations with high milk yields, weight gains, and high livestock density are successful, and therefore have a real source for paying higher salaries.

Improving the situation with herd reproduction is the number one task for UKSP "Rydomlsky" of the Tolochin District, headed by Vasily Khadnevich. He does not hide: there are miscalculations in the work.

— In farms with high dairy herd productivity, the insemination technician is highly valued. Where the importance of reproduction is underestimated, the results are usually far from the desired heights, — said the chairman of the regional executive committee, instructing the head to focus on forming human resources and motivating employees for quality work.

This also applies to Anatoly Budya, director of OJSC "Buevschina" in Sharkovshchyna district. Despite the fact that last year was difficult for the enterprise due to nature's whims, as well as for many others, some teams managed to improve their performance while others did not, despite being in practically equal conditions. In addition, Anatoly Ignatievich, as well as Ivan Yushek, director of OJSC "Turkovo" in Miory district, and Alexander Demko, director of the "Prozhektor" branch of OJSC "Vitebskhleboprom" in Lepel district, should radically reform their approach to crop production, taking into account climatic conditions and soil fertility, and use the allocated sown area structure beneficially. By the way, this topic is frequently raised at personnel days. Nikolai Sherstnev makes a strategic bet on 100% compliance with this task by all organizations of the agro-industrial complex and never tires of repeating: indicators of efficiency, profitability, and the financial condition of farms should become growth drivers.

Sergey Skovorodko, general director of OJSC "Verkhnedvinsky Rayagropromservis", has been invited to extend his contract, and he has also received a number of specific assignments: to increase the pace of service provision and work on reducing costs.

A separate block is dedicated to machinery, the operability of which is largely influenced by soil cleared of stones. Therefore, before sending machinery to the fields, Alexander Moshkarev, head of KSKhUP "Plemennoy Zavod Rekonstruktor" in Tolochin district, has been tasked with timely collection of such "harvest". This is essential, otherwise the farm will simply go bankrupt buying spare parts. Machinery must be ready for the spring agricultural campaign.
