What training is needed for business management?

Employers typically seek to hire individuals with a bachelor's degree in business administration, or business management, for positions in business management at a company. Beyond this, additional training may also be needed. Possible postions held by a business management professional are sales, advertising, operations management, and human resources.

What is the difference between managers and supervisors?

In the simplest terms, a manager relies more heavily on his or her people management skills and business strategy skills, while a supervisor is responsible for running the day-to-day work done by the employees, and overseeing that tasks are completed on time.
