Strategy Managers

Advancement Prospects

Strategy managers with more than five years of experience may advance to senior managers, overseeing the work of junior-level strategy managers and related professionals and handling more complex projects. In large corporations, they may become directors of strategic management departments. Many leave full-time positions to start their own consultancies. They may also advance by becoming certified in specialized areas and going back to school for a master's or doctoral degree. Strategy managers grow their reputation in their field by getting more involved in professional associations, such as by joining committees, teaching workshops, speaking at conferences, and becoming board members.
