The military has long been recognized as a traditionally male-dominated field where women have faced various barriers and limited opportunities for advancement. Women are becoming more powerful in the military as leaders, breaking down barriers and dispelling preconceptions as they take command, inspire, and shape the military's future. The problem under investigation was the persistent underrepresentation of women in the U.S. military; due to gender bias and preconceptions that are deeply embedded in military culture, women in the military face unique difficulties and impediments. Therefore, the purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to explore the perceptions and lived experiences of women leaders in the U.S. military and how they have worked to overcome challenges when accessing top leadership positions. This study followed a qualitative method that utilized a phenomenological design. The researcher collected data from 10 female leaders in top leadership positions within any armed forces. For this study, a top leadership position was defined as (a) Captain, (b) Major, (c) Lieutenant Colonel, (d) Colonel, (e) Brigadier General, and (f) General. The researcher collected data via semi-structured interviews, asking each participant the same ten open-ended questions in the same manner during a private interview. Five themes emerged from the dataset: (a) resilience and adapted strategies, (b) gendered workplace inequities, (c) personal and professional balance, (d) building and nurturing professional networks, and (e) gendered workplace pressures. These themes highlight various aspects of women's experiences, including intersectionality challenges, mental health considerations, and organizational support. Specifically, the recognition of these themes contributes to a more robust understanding of the multifaceted challenges faced by women leaders in the military.
