Using semi-structured interviews and a phenomenological approach, the study analyzed narratives from 18 gifted women in their 40s and 50s across five domains: mathematics and science, language, fine arts, music, and dance.This study explored their career paths, self-actualization, and reflections on gifted education. The findings provided insights into workplace trajectories, talent development, and the support systems needed for gifted women. Additionally, the study aimed to identify key instructional and support strategies to help gifted students apply their talents professionally.I. Career Development This study found that gifted women often pursued careers in Social, Enterprising, and Investigative fields according to Holland’s typology, highlighting interpersonal competence as crucial for advancement. Academically gifted women typically followed linear, specialized paths through higher education, while artistically gifted women preferred interest-driven, diverse careers in primary and secondary education. Balancing work and family was a common priority among the women who participated in this study, with career sustainability relying on family-friendly policies and societal support. Career success was influenced by social capital, personal traits, and strong familial support. Their challenges included interpersonal and managerial difficulties, often linked to introversion, which hindered advancement. The leadership styles of the interviewees tended to be collaborative and relational. They also noted that educators played different roles at each educational stage—early teachers shaped interests, while university mentors had the most direct impact on career choices. As a result, they suggested that career guidance should align with developmental stages and evolving needs.II. Professional/Talent Development The professional development of the women interviewed followed a stage-based trajectory, with strong reliance on family support throughout. Before age 30, they were in a phase of exploration and foundation-building; from 30 to 40, they focused on advancement and consolidation; from 40 to 50, they pursued diversification and reorientation, seeking balance among career, family, health, and meaning. After 50, the emphasis shifted to self-actualization, lifelonglearning, health, and social contribution. Future goals primarily centered on well-being, continued growth, and giving back to society.Key factors influencing their development included workplace fit, social values, support systems, role models, and personal traits such as autonomy, ambition, passion, and initiative. Most participants expressed a positive view of their careers and had achieved notable success.In terms of gifted education, interviewees who majored in STEM fields emphasized the need for diversified curricula that integrated humanities and arts to enhance interpersonal and coping skills. They advocated for stronger school-based programs, emotional support for underachieving students, appropriate teacher–student ratios, and leadership development courses. Women who majored in the arts highlighted the importance of curriculum diversification to strengthen adaptability, social skills, and appreciation of the arts, and encouraged parent–student involvement in course design. At the university level, they recommended that educators improve career training and industry–academia collaboration to broaden career opportunities. Women who majored in music suggested that education departments develop more practical identification tests and reduce rote learning, while those who majored in dance emphasized the urgent need for teacher training to address instructorshortages. III. Self-Actualization Generally, the interviewees mentioned that they had not set long-term goals for self-actualization, instead adopting a pragmatic, present-focused approach. They prioritized seizing opportunities and completing immediate tasks, reflecting a practical attitude toward life. Their self-actualization was embedded within the ecosystem of self, family, and society, driven by personally defined values rather than the pursuit of fame or conventional career success. Family played a dual role as both support and constraint, and their sense of fulfillment encompassed work, family, and personal growth.The women who graduated from gifted high school programs defined success as achieving personally meaningful goals and earning respect, favoring relational and value-based interpretations over socially prescribed, often male-centric, definitions of success.Finally, this study offered practical and research-oriented recommendations based on these findings.女性資優追蹤研究生涯發展才能發展自我實現gifted womenfollow up studycareer developmenttalent developmentself-actualization高中資優班畢業女性生涯現狀、才能發展與自我實現之追蹤A Follow UP Study on the Career Status, Talent Development and Self-actualization of Women Graduated from Senior High School Gifted Classes學術論文
