How to become a managing director?
The Managing Director is responsible for many aspects of the business.
Primarily the Managing Director will be responsible for implementing company policy and any changes to it. As the aims of business are focussed towards growth, profits and increasing shareholder return it is the responsibility of the MD to ensure that the company strategy is geared towards this.
Becoming a managing director (MD) at a financial firm like an investment bank means high compensation and status, but there are only a few such positions available.
