At one time though, people who wanted to be managers, first got jobs in the industry in which they wanted to build their career. There will always be people who want a management career - and some sort of training in the specialist skills that successful management requires is definitely a good thing. But divorcing it from experience of the industry at other levels can make for shallow management approaches, that are far more grounded in management theory than in the realities of the specific industry or company.
