Chief Executive Officers

Outlook

Employment for CEOs is expected to decline through 2032, according to the U.S. Department of Labor because of slowing growth regarding new companies and organizations. Despite this prediction, there will always be a need for skilled business executives because they are essential for the successful operation of any business or other organization.

Top executives are expected to face very strong competition for jobs. The high salaries, stock options, and status associated with these positions draw many qualified applicants. For chief executives, those with an advanced degree and an extensive track record of success at large companies and organizations will have the best employment prospects.
