# Manager

**Direct the ISA’s most precious resource: Astronauts.**

Managers feed, house, and train all types of personnel — from construction workers to research scientists. This demanding Specialty requires complex management skills, but makes you an indispensable part of the settlement’s activities.

***

**Relevant Item Types:**

1. All Astronauts

**Strategic Resource Production:**

1. Engineer Labor
2. Science Labor
3. Social Labor
4. Logistics Labor

Production requirements for this Specialty are the TOTAL Labor production (i.e. Engineer + Science + Social + Logistics)

**Appeals to:** Advanced players that want to stack labor, which will be in demand for more complex equipment.
