In what function? Health Policy? Seen several VP level pharma people do just fine with a basic degree plus an MBA. Experience and knowing the “right” people who can vouch for you are more critical in my opinion than getting another degree.

Agreed with this. If you're a CTM, you are better off climbing the ladder via AD and D positions first.

DrPH is not required, at all. I see some people with bachelors in VP/SVP roles.
But many have masters.

It depends what kind of function. A business function, no
A science function, maybe yes
