You really have to pick your poison. I don't know of anyone where the same resources/teams do both. Your best bet would be rising through the ranks on the implementation side to lead pursuits where you get to set the roadmap for what gets implemented how and why, but pure MC/strat folks never do real implementation work beyond vendor selection.
