Develop your managerial skills by taking on leadership roles in school clubs. You should also join student business organizations—such as Junior Achievement (https://jausa.ja.org), DECA (www.deca.org), Future Business Leaders of America (https://www.fbla.org), and Business Professionals of America (http://bpa.org) to learn more about the business world and participate in activities that develop your leadership, managerial, and financial management skills.
Aspiring space port managers can learn more about the field by touring space ports. For example, Spaceport America (which is operated by the State of New Mexico) offers tours. The Federal Aviation Administration offers a map of licensed space ports on its Web site, https://www.faa.gov/space/office_spaceports#map.
Finally, participate in information interviews and job-shadowing experiences with space port managers to learn more about the field. Ask your school counselor for help setting up these experiences.
