Management

Consider a management profession
As a manager, you will plan, direct, and oversee operations and employees. You may supervise an entire company, government office, specific department, or territory. Managers often specialize in a particular field, such as sales, finance, health services, human resources, social and community services, government, and education.

Is management right for you?
Skilled managers are:

  • Leaders – emotionally stable, enthusiastic, and self-assured
  • Communicators – relate well both to staff and superiors
  • Organizers – make and execute plans to meet employers’ goals
  • Problem solvers – identify and resolve problems
  • Flexible – able to see things from different perspectives

Career outlook
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, top executives earn a median pay of $98,980 per year.
