Abstract
Discrimination, subtle and overt, from socialization and institutional forces, continues to keep nurse executives, most of whom are women, out of chief executive officer (CEO) positions. However, because of the women's movement, changing organizational forces, and shifting demographics, more nurse executives are likely to move into the ranks of CEOs. The authors explore the issues of managerial discrimination and indicate strategies that are beginning to open doors to female nurse executives who desire CEO positions.Keywords
