Career Paths

Managers with MBAs often work with upper executive officers to run various operations in plants, factories, departments, corporations and health facilities. Essentially, they oversee the day-to-day grind of running a company. A manager's tasks can include overseeing the company's financial and accounting divisions, coordinating with the human resources department, and supervising a marketing campaign. According to the BLS, employment in administrative services management was expected to increase by 8% between 2014 and 2024. Competition for high-end management positions would be tight during this time period. There would be a higher growth rate of 17% for medical and health services managers, due in part to an overall growth in this industry. Network and computer system administrators would have an average growth rate of 8% for management positions.
