This qualitative narrative inquiry illuminates participants' perspective of female rivalry in the workplace through their personal experience. The study focused on what stories women tell about how they have been affected and have been changed by female rivalry in the workplace. Interviews with women who had experienced female rivalry revealed that the women (1) Did not like the conflict among women; (2) To some degree they expected women to be supportive or friendly; (3) After the experience most were leery about working with women; (4) Felt their organization was too passive and that organizational support is important; and (5) Emphasized the importance of gender-based diversity programs, training, coaching, and mentoring. Using the lens of transformative learning, the changes and learning for the 10 research participants were explored. The data were analyzed to determine if the participants had a paradigm shift in self-perception, psychological perspective, or behavior based on experiencing the disorienting dilemma of female rivalry. The findings acknowledged those three dimensions of transformational learning but diverged from existing research in that all dimensions did not occur for each individual in the same proportions. A transformational learning process model derived from the data illustrates how the participants used the power of their emotions to manage the perspective changes that occurred as a result of their lived experiences with female rivalry. The results indicate that the greatest learning occurred in intrapersonal knowledge of self for these professionals. Keywords: female rivalry, counterproductive workplace behavior, gender-loyalty, coaching for women, queen bee syndrome, transformative learning, organizational behavior, narrative inquiry, perspective changes, qualitative analysis.
