Jobs: Anna Artamonov, vice president of Mail. ru Group

Guest "workplace" - a beautiful intelligent girl (this also happens), which occupies a major position. Meet Anna Artamonov - Vice President Mail. Ru Group. It will show you your work area and reveal some of the secrets of its production.

What do you do in your work?

Since last year, we actively set about mobilizing our services. Now we have email applications for all smartphone operating systems used by Russian users - iOS, Android, Windows Phone 7, Windows 8, and even Bada, MeeGo and Symbian.

Also, among the most interesting and significant launches committed my team this year, it should be noted Mail.ru Cloud (cloud service to store user data) and «Mail. Ru for Business "(the possibility for companies to use e-mail, calendar and so on our technologies, but in my domain).

How does your workplace?

I have a 27-inch iMac at work and at home - love the big screen, because you can work in multiple windows. If we talk about software on the iMac I have Windows 8. :)

During trips using MacBook Air. But, lately, missing smartphone.

By the way, recently found herself on the fact that 20 minutes of sitting in front of the monitor and at the same time reading with your iPhone screen!

In addition to iPhone, I have an android device and on which I constantly testing our new apps: Samsung Galaxy, HTC One, Sony Xperia. For this purpose there is also the iPad and several smart phones less popular platforms.

How do you organize your time?

There is a classical matrix of time management when all the works are divided into 4 squares on the urgency and importance. For a start will have to think a little, but over time it begins to take place on the machine.

Non-urgent and unimportant drop out - they do not need to do, because most of it is just time wasters, which ultimately did not give anything. Urgent unimportant should try to delegate.

This leaves time for important and urgent tasks, the most important thing - for important non-urgent: to look around and think about strategy, to look for some new niches and opportunities.

What's your daily routine?

I am a night owl: go to sleep three in the morning and begin working productively with 12 days.

During the day, basically I meet product managers, where we co-ordinate plans for the next releases and versions, studying statistics. Often brainstorm on some topics, attracting a broader composition of people from other projects. Quite a lot of time as I spend on the study of competitors' products, as well as testing of its products.

Their products in general it is necessary to use on a regular basis, or - death.

Sometimes it is necessary to jump from platform to platform, that is, for example, change the "iPhone" on the phone on the "Android" or a day to sit on the Internet with your tablet.

Also, try to be aware of the important food industry news, and often hold a general educational meetings for employees, where someone who is a specialist in the important field, tells the others how it is set (here the closest such a meeting plan for mobile systems analysts: what they are, what is the difference, what kind of experience and the use of etc.).

What place sport occupies in your life?

Unfortunately, less than desirable. From the "lazy" sport fond of yachting - once or twice a year I go to the sea.

Previously, as a sailor, and this summer I got a license Skipper RYA Day Skipper.

How to pass the time in traffic jams?

I live five minutes from the office, and therefore practically no traffic jams. But when still have to be somewhere, I can not use your smartphone - check email, read the news or tape in sots.seti... When I go, I listen to your favorite FM radio stations -Business and "Maximum".

Is there a place in your paper work?

Very interesting question. Just the other day I took her out of his office printer. :)

Paper is present, but with each passing day fewer and fewer. Usually I read everything from the screen and get the printout to me only from the outside - bring, such as a resume.

Layfhakerstvo from Anna Artamonova

Books:

1. "24 deaths computer security sin"Michael Howard, David LeBlanc, John Viega (recently ordered and bought all of our programmers);
2. "As a result in order. The Art of stress-free productivity ", David Allen (probably know about it all);
3. "The World in 2050, the year"Daniel Franklin (for those who, like me, interested in the topic of the future; book magazine The Economist, experts are trying to answer the question posed in the title).

In fact, it is difficult to advise people to book all at once, without knowing their profession or their concerns in life at the moment.

Video

now I can offer such a movie, which is very short talks about the art to present your product users, of course, the product itself must also be good.

Is there a dream configuration?

If you mean the dream workplace, the new office I realized in his office all I wanted. Only because of the glass walls sometimes lack privacy.

You've probably heard that the Mail in the summer. Ru Group moved to a new office - a 27-story "glass" skyscraper. My office is located on the 21st floor, and from this height is very beautiful open views of Moscow, and you can watch the sunsets are absolutely fantastic! But if you really be lost in daydreams, we would like to change the appearance, for example, that the window was the sea or forest.
