We can manage: employment trends for management occupations

Will your future boss be a robot? Will workplaces of the future need as many managers? Although technology will undoubtedly affect the role of managers in the workplace, BLS projections of management occupations show steady and resilient employment demand over the next 10 years. One group of managers in particular is anticipated to experience markedly strong growth: operations specialties managers. These managers plan and direct the activities of businesses and organizations for specific subject areas. (For instance, training and development managers are responsible for the training and development of staff, while purchasing managers procure materials and products.) Among this group, managers working in computer and information systems and finance should expect especially strong demand for their services.
