Although Russia is a country with relatively large impact on our business, management in Russia is an unknown subject to a lot of people in Sweden and other European countries. Now that Russia has become (or is becoming) a market economy, business with Russia is likely to become even more frequent than it used to be during the Soviet period. This thesis aims at giving the reader an insight into the development of Russian management in order to present the current view of management in Russia. Even though Russia is now a market economy and managers face requirements and situations similar to those of managers in other market economies, Russia's history and management traditions play a vital role in the situations of contemporary Russian managers. At the same time as Russian managers have to adapt to the new market economy situation they must consider aspects such as paternalism, corporate ethics, responsibility avoidance, informal relations, outdated technology and so on.
