Abstract
Draws on material from a qualitative research enquiry with women who had reached middle and senior level management positions and then left or contemplated leaving employment. Charts six dimensions of organizational life at senior levels, as experienced by these women. Issues of living in and seeking to be effective in male‐dominated organizational cultures predominate. Reports some of the challenges and pressures faced and experiences of productive working relationships. Offers a tentative framework for considering career, management and organizational development issues.Keywords
