Why a business career?

Top business leaders are driven, analytic, and innovative. They make decisions that are more complex than ever before and they understand the full scope of an enterprise and its potential in a global economy. The keys to becoming a successful business leader and to leading a firm or organization to success hinge on your developing proficiency in several essential areas:

  • analysis and decision making
  • information technology
  • effective communication
  • understanding economic trends and public policy, and
  • knowledge of behavioral processes in organizations.

Mastery of these concepts can open doors to exciting career opportunities in business, such as:

  • managing a multinational corporation
  • working in banking or investment banking
  • consulting
  • sales or marketing for a Fortune-500 corporation
  • starting your own business
  • offering profitable investment and financial guidance, or
  • running a non-profit organization.
