The degree opens the doors for you.
After that it is what you personally bring to the management position that you want.
Research the position and list the skills/talents YOU rank as
necessary for the job.
In management , the degree opens the door. Only your competency will keep you in.
Priorities on the CEO's list are:
Communication skills- - - - - - sink or swim , it's usually # 1
Leadership skills
Organizational skills
Think on your feet? Stay focused? Handle several projects at once? See the projects through to the end? See the big picture? And how your dept fits? Think "outside the box"?
and,
Communication skills !

You can.
The better question is: Why the HE** would you want to?
Who would want the headaches?
Well, I guess someone has to do it. Just don't become one of those managers that is all about cutting costs and making the troops (us!) miserable.
Seriously, though, MJB, good luck in your endeavors! :kiss
