Whole life in banking

Hi,

What division is the most suitable to know anything about the firm and gives the most benefits if you want to stay your whole life in banking and eventually becoming MD or even Global Head of XXX or even CFO/CEO of a BB firm?

Some argue one should at least work in US, Europe, Asia for that bank and work in markets, IBD, Operations to gain a broad overview.

Any thoughts?
