Abstract: The purpose of this mixed methods study is to investigate perceptions of leadership among women alumni from military colleges and schools, to measure if and how their leadership development training while students in these schools influenced their personal leadership experiences after graduation. The researcher conducted a Leadership Development for Women Graduates of Military Schools Survey with women alumni of one Senior Military College and one secondary military school and a Leadership Development School Demographic Survey with key leadership of traditional military colleges and schools that run a 24-hour, co-educational, holistic military program for all its students. Using the Authentic Leadership framework, the researcher sought to determine women's outcomes regarding self-efficacy, hierarchical versus systemic thinking, and individual perceptions of leadership development outcomes among women alumni of military colleges and schools.
