  • “Brass” Ceiling: Elite Military Women’S Strategies for Success
    ABSTRACT Title: BREAKING THROUGH THE “BRASS” CEILING: ELITE MILITARY WOMEN’S STRATEGIES FOR SUCCESS. Darlene Marie Iskra, Ph.D., 2007 Directed by: Professor Mady Wechsler Segal, Department of Sociology People who rise to the top of any organization must have a dedication and determination that distinguishes them from their co-workers. White men historically have held these positions due to discriminatory practices by employers, protectionist legislation, and social constructs about their leadership capabilities and motivation. Inroads into these elite positions are being made, however, both in the corporate world and in the military, by women and minority men. This study examines the women who have risen to the top of a masculine institution, and the strategies they used to “break through the brass ceiling” and become General and Flag Officers. Data were collected through several methods, including content analysis of their military biographies, self- administered surveys, and selected interviews. Results generally indicate that the women overcame the challenges they faced and took advantage of opportunities that arose. They rarely said “no” to a challenge; they did not question their ability to succeed simply due to gender, and they overwhelmingly had a positive attitude and loved the military institution. However, the ability for the women to navigate the masculine organization of the military would not have been possible without a vibrant support system, which included mentors, and supportive spouses and family. Mentorship was an important factor in the women’s ability to navigate the system; mentors provided career guidance, opened opportunities, and provided personal support and advice when needed. Many also had an active family life.
