I’ll be ending my 3-year Marketing Developmental assignment soon.

9 years in field sales. 6 years in Trade Marketing. 3 years handling 6 brands and about to launch a new one.

To become a President or General Manager of an FMCG firm someday, what other departments should I immerse myself into to get a more wholistic experience under my belt?
