Considering jumping to industry in lieu of a partner case in 2-3 years.

Am afraid I can’t reach a CxO position later in life if I wanted that path. Thoughts from partners? Did you go through this?

I know of one person who did this and they exited into a chief strategy officer position

It depends. CSO at Amex ran payments practice at BCG before his current role. I imagine that’s def an outlier though

There are at least two partners who became CEOs that I personally know - Lou Gerstner and David Kenny

The head of strategy at JPMC was one of our partners and now is moving to MetLife as CSO as well. CRO and now CEO of US business was one of our partners. Former CRO and later CFO of AIG was also an OW partner.

Point is: yes it’s possible
