Obtaining a degree in human resource management is useful for those interested in leading and managing employees at a company or organization. This field of study offers students training in conflict management, creating ROIs, labor relations and building work teams, to name a few.

Once you have obtained a graduate degree in business and have significant hands-on experience, the next step is an Executive MBA (EMBA). Programs combine fundamentals such as finance, accounting and marketing with leadership studies to get you into high-level executive and management positions.
