Still a resident and ready to jump ship into the C suite already. lol. take a number and get in line.
first you need to practice for 10+ years, serve on committees, get to know how a hospital runs, and establish yourself as a clinician.

degree only means something if already have the interpersonal skills to fit the leadership role
Plenty of opportunity for a medical director. CMO is a little more challenging - I think though it mostly has to do with being in the right place at the right time. Don't think it realistically has much to do with residency/specialty training. The direction would be to be a physician somewhere first, then transition to med directorship, then try for CMO.
I concur! Lol. Yes, and no to the MBA.
I don't think this is necessarily true. Not for being a med director at least. Plenty of people become med directors within a few years of graduation, myself included. CMO - I would agree that's a little more challenging.
you can be a medical director on year 1 as an attending. ( think of medical director home health and hospice)
CMO is a different game and will take too much of your time
most of the CMO I know have little to non existent clinic hours a week depending how big the organization is
I still prefer the white coat more than the suit.
