Abstract

Eminent women’s lives were examined to find the factors which the women perceived to have contributed to their talent development across seven domains of talent. Using feminist methodology, a Talent Development Model of Eminent Women was developed based on emergent themes from semi-structured interviews and demographic data. From this model, two of the themes found to be catalysts to the talent development with these eminent women were explored and explicated: passionate engagement in talent domains; and taking opportunities to accomplish and achieve in talent domains across their lifespan. These two key themes which emerged from the eminent women’s reflections on their lived experience have implications for other talented females, their teaching, and talent development. Additionally, two of the eminent participants in the research, one eminent actor in the arts, and one eminent medical scientist are used to exemplify their talent development to eminence in these themes.
