Business Management and Administration
Virtually all companies regardless of the particular product or service they are selling require business management and administrative skills among their employees. The work involves activities that bring people together to advance and accomplish specific business goals, including planning, organizing, staffing, leading, coordinating, controlling and motivating.
Large companies organize and divide these activities by skill and function such as: executive management, operations, marketing and sales, finance and accounting, human resources, information technology and administrative support. Smaller companies may contract these responsibilities out or task a few individuals with many of these activities. Most jobs in this are in managerial and professional occupations with the remainder providing administrative support. The job outlook is positive. Many good-paying jobs will be added in business management and administration as individuals in these positions retire over the next decade.
