LMAO - there's some truth in that but not all directors fell into the job, a few of us worked our way up through the ranks
You can work your way through strategy a whole lot faster if you actually understand what you are talking about 
You obviously have the benefit of understanding business and IT though 
In the company I work for budget and bottom line are more important than expanding our IT facilities at the moment

My responsibility of dealing with the regions IT is being taken away thankfully, I spend more time doing that than I do my contracted work.
