While there have been some headways toward increasing the number of women in executive leadership positions within the U.S. pharmaceutical industry, there is considerable evidence that Black women remain underrepresented at the executive leadership level within this business sector. This research study documents the experiences of nine Black women in executive / senior-level leadership roles in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry via a qualitative exploratory case study approach. This qualitative exploratory case study aimed to determine why Black women are typically underrepresented in executive leadership positions in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry by examining the experiences of current Black women executives in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry. The researcher utilized the self-determination theory as the framework for the study. The research study aimed to handle a business problem and contribute to the scholarly literature on motivational indicators from leadership experiences by building on self-determination theory. The study sample size included nine Black women currently in executives / senior-level leadership positions and who have been in the leadership role for three years or more within the U.S. pharmaceutical industry. Data collection comprised semi-structured open-ended questions for one-on-one interviews with study participants, audio recording, audio journaling, and member-checking for data saturation and triangulation, thus ensuring the data's trustworthiness. The researcher used study participants' interviews, transcriptions, and audio journal notes to implement a thematic approach in analyzing the study data. Study participants shared their experiences and motivation leading to executive/senior leadership. The following three themes emerged: determination and dedication; leadership development; and the U.S. pharmaceutical industry's organizational and environmental culture, which assisted in answering the research question: What are the factors resulting in the underrepresentation of Black women in executive leadership positions in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry? The finding showed that Black women applied self-determination as the motivation towards their climb to executive/senior-level leadership. They faced various detrimental barriers, resulting in the disparity of Black women executive leaders, thus causing the underrepresentation of Black women executive leaders within the U.S. pharmaceutical industry. The research findings uncovered areas of practice where improvements could be made by recognizing and understanding the experiences of Black women executive/senior leaders in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry. The findings from this study may be of interest and beneficial to other Black women who aspire to climb to executive/senior-level leadership roles within the U.S. pharmaceutical industry.
