General Business
Almost every firm, government agency, and organization has one or more financial managers who oversee the preparation of financial reports, direct investment activities, and implement cash management strategies. Many of these occupations require a college-educated individual who can write and speak well, solve problems, learn new information quickly and work well with others on a team.
