Management, broadly speaking, is about juggling people, ideas, equipment, finance, time, and other resources for the purpose of obtaining desired and stated goals.

All organizations, public, private, and even NGOs need, continue to need, and will always need managers to run their affairs; they generally need graduates with good communication skills the right attitude, and essentially some specialized knowledge. The ability to use the computer and the internet in all its spheres is now a must, no longer an added advantage.

If you are a graduate and you have (or can quickly get some) specialized skills then you are likely to quickly get a job in management.
