Online Management & Leadership Degrees and Careers
Successful corporate leaders such as former General Electric CEO Jack Welch are able to motivate employees, envision strategies for future success, and inspire others to follow their vision. While the exact goals may vary from company to company, succesful leaders draw on a set of versatile skills valued by hiring mangers across industries.
Leadership is so fundamental to succeed in a competitive global economy that GE, online retailer Zappos.com, consumer goods giant Procter & Gamble and airline Southwest invest in it, even during tough economic times, according to Bloomberg/Business Week.
Education and Career Opportunities in Management and Leadership
Degrees in management and leadership should prepare you to successfully overcome corporate challenges. You should develop a capacity to analyze complex situations, choose coherent solutions, and defend your actions. An ability to gracefully manage fiscal pressures, corporate politics, and diverse business environments should set you apart in the search for management and leadership jobs.
Management and leadership jobs can range from top corporate roles such as chief executive officers or general and operations managers to front-line supervisors in retail settings or food service environments. Little change is expected in the number of job openings for top executives, so set yourself apart from the competition by sharpening your management skills with online degrees in management and leadership. According to The Bureau of Labor Statistics the median annual wage for chief executive officers in 2009 was $160,720, while general and operations managers took home $92,560.
