Middle management is lower in position to Upper management. As briefly discussed in class and mentioned by you, the upper management are responsible for making the primary and strategic decisions within a company. This people are the CEO, CFO, CMO, CSO ect. While Middle management are responsible for implementing the top management’s policies and plans and also leading subordinate staff. They comprise of managers who head specific departments or business units, or who serve as project managers in flat organizations.
I would prefer the upper management but to become a CFO or CEO, one would need to acquire enough education and experience to take that role. So, with that being said, at this moment in my life I would be better suited for the Middle management. As a middle management, they involvement into day-to-day running of a business of the company, make sure vision proposed by the upper management is successful carried out. Lead junior staffs to reach the target goals. A company future depends on them and it a good and challenging role to take on to becoming a good leader.
