Toni Townes-Whitley didn't follow a step-by-step blueprint to reach the top of the defense industry. The SAIC CEO's path was non-linear, stretching horizontally and vertically before reaching the top of the $4.4 billion defense tech giant. Speaking at the Fortune Most Powerful Women Summit last week, Townes-Whitley said that she made "about three or four key turns" in her career before becoming the second Black female CEO currently in the Fortune 500.
