Financial and insurance services is one of the largest employers of women with over 60% making up their workforce. However, this industry experiences significant challenges in developing, promoting, and retaining and diverse leadership pipeline of women and diverse women of color. The leadership gap remains wide for diverse women who remain in the first- to mid-level management much longer than white women and all men. Therefore, in order to increase diversity at senior executive levels and unlock the full potential of this talent pool, more must be known about how diverse women mid-level managers, who aspire to attain senior leadership roles, successfully develop and progress toward top leadership.

520 $a Financial and insurance services is one of the largest employers of women with over 60% making up their workforce. However, this industry experiences significant challenges in developing, promoting, and retaining and diverse leadership pipeline of women and diverse women of color. The leadership gap remains wide for diverse women who remain in the first- to mid-level management much longer than white women and all men. Therefore, in order to increase diversity at senior executive levels and unlock the full potential of this talent pool, more must be known about how diverse women mid-level managers, who aspire to attain senior leadership roles, successfully develop and progress toward top leadership.
520 $a Given these points, this study sought to: (a) explore with 16 diverse women in corporate mid-level management, their perceptions of how their learning experiences to date impacted their progression toward their leadership aspirations and goals; and (b) shed light on the individual and organizational factors that facilitate or hinder progression of diverse women managers attaining top leadership roles in the future; and (c) gain an understanding of the career progression approaches diverse women employ to advance in their organization.
520 $a Study participants were recruited from Endeavor Insurance Company. Data was collected from sixteen diverse women managers and seven focus group participants, who were at similar levels but not part of the interview sample. Study findings revealed that diverse women managers develop and progress by affirming their aspirations to become senior corporate leaders; identifying and seizing leadership opportunities; managing challenging situations and relationships; and having access to diverse company-sponsored experiences.
520 $a The principal recommendations resulting from the study is that diverse women, who aspire to top leadership roles, focus early on building a portfolio of critical business experiences that involve risks, visibility and challenges that will strengthen their ability to take on broader leadership roles. To mitigate lack of access to these critical experiences, organizations must develop multi-functional, cross-race sponsorship programs that are focused on developing and advancing diverse women into leadership roles.
