Abstract | The booming economic development and access to modern education are the key drivers that have recently changed the position of women in Qatari society. Research shows that increased motivation among women to pursue a career and enhance their skills and capabilities is helping the economy of all GCC nations. Despite the upcoming drastic increase in women's participation in the workforce, women still hold few leadership positions in the GCC. This study examines the experiences of women in educational leadership in Qatar in the field of higher education to further explore the ways they maneuver their leadership roles in the light of Islamic leadership theory and practice. Specifically, the intent was to understand the unique leadership narratives of three Qatari female leaders in higher education. To illuminate female leaders' experiences in Qatar, this study employs interpretivist narrative research methods. Interviews and meetings' observations helped construct detailed stories of leaders' lived experiences. While findings partially reiterated existing literature, this study shed light on several unique contributions to Muslim female leadership and embedding Islamic leadership in leadership roles resulting in implications for practice and research.
