Here's an idea: Work the bare minimum you can until you are about 30 years old.

Then, cram training content online that current senior managers don't know anything about(because they've been heads down grinding for a decade), inflate your resume(nobody is checking your references), and take their jobs.

It's not a path to Director/VP that any of these influencers will endorse, but it's tried and true. You can just ignore all their try hard BS and land in the same salary range when you need it.
