I guess the job I'd be best suited for or see myself in is a corperate upper level management job.

To get into upper management, you pretty much have to get an MBA nowdays. But since you're just in high school, that's pretty far off. You need to get at least a bachelors first. And even then, you should probably work for at least one or two years before heading back to get the MBA.

I have a keen interest in designing or on a design team of a video game. I wouldn't like to do all the programming things but the actual hashing out of the game including storey boards, visauls, and paper work that goes along with that buisness would I guess be sort of a dream job for myself.

That's a tough job to get. To break into the gaming industry, you pretty much have to do your time in the trenches with hard-core programming for a few years. And those jobs are tough to get too. The best bet is to construct a few mods and send them to game companies to let them see what you're capable of.
Get an engineering degree of some sort. (a BS from a reasonably good school) They all require the same classes for the first year or so. That way you can easily change your major, from say Comp Eng to Elec Eng, if you're more interested in another area. And if the gaming industry plans don't come through, you still have a valuable degree and can pursue other paths.
