Abstract	Individual and cross case analyses were employed to explore how the pursuit of career and life satisfaction was defined and resolved by 11 elite female scientists in the process of career establishment. A taxonomy which emerged from this procedure identified the following factors that influenced the aspirations and attainments of women at the threshold of top level careers: professional advancement structures in science, the funding climate for scientific research, dual career constraints, commitment to social change, and maintenance of friendship and family ties. Findings hold important implications for educators and counselors and for the overall goals of talent development. (Author)
