Mbb fishes - how difficult it is after your first industry exit to director strategy to change again?.
1) will mbb brand still be as valuable after exit?
2) will the brand of your industry company be a deciding factor (eg mid size vs f500)?
3) will you be restricted to your landing industry or you can lateral to director Strat positions in other industries?.
Context: ex mbb senior manager - 10 yoe including 3 in industry pre mba
