About the Occupations
Management is the process of coordinating and integrating work activities so they are completed efficiently and effectively with and through other people to accomplish organizational goals. The many job titles of managers reflect either the specific responsibility of a position or the industry in which the man- ager works. Supervisors direct the activities of their employees and make sure the work is done correctly, teach employees safe work practices, train new workers to learn different aspects of the job, interview and terminate employees, and help ensure that equipment and materials are used properly and efficiently. Small business managers run businesses that have less than 55 employees. Restaurant and food service managers help ensure effective and profitable operation of restaurants and institutional food service facilities. Retail sales worker supervisors and managers help ensure customers receive satisfactory service and quality goods. Meeting, event, and convention planners develop programs, market events or conventions, budget the event, choose locations, make travel arrangements, arrange entertainment, plan menus and choose caterers. Shipping and transportation managers directly supervise and coordinate activities of transportation and material-moving machine and vehicle operators.
