By Jeanne Ebersole, MSLOC 2012 Few women hold roles at the top levels of organizations and of those who do, many have reported their intent to leave within five years. This study investigates the transition experiences of executive women who have opted out.

Participants reported experiencing a distinct transition process with identifiable phases and that coaching would be useful in the transition.
