Abstract

Background: As industries evolve, the demand for graduates equipped with managerial skills has intensified, revealing a perceptible gap in the existing workforce. This study aims to address this gap by employing logistic regression analysis to identify factors influencing the presence of managerial skills in graduates. Methodology: A comprehensive dataset comprising academic records, extracurricular engagement, internship experiences, and soft skills training was collected. Logistic regression modeling was employed to analyze the binary outcome of possessing (1) or lacking (0) managerial skills, using relevant independent variables. Contribution: This research contributes to the understanding of the determinants of managerial skills in graduates, offering insights into the key factors shaping workforce preparedness. The findings serve as a foundation for educational institutions, policymakers, and employers to tailor interventions and curriculum enhancements. Results and Findings: The logistic regression model revealed significant correlations between managerial skills and variables such as academic performance, participation in leadership programs, and communication skills. The study emphasizes the importance of targeted educational strategies and practical experiences in developing managerial competencies among graduates.
