Abstract: The study’s overall purpose is to emphasize the significance of appointing Filipinas as Ambassadors in the Foreign Service. In doing so, the study sought to answer what are the approaches of Filipina Ambassadors and how they utilize those approaches to effect change in the Service; hence, making their appointment significant. The researchers conducted interviews with Filipino Ambassadors (a man and a woman) and key participants with background in diplomacy. The conducted interviews were utilized with gathered secondary sources, enabling the study to determine that the appointment of Filipinas as Ambassadors is significant in the Foreign Service through the development of themes which satisfyingly answered the study’s problems. Most importantly, the study was able to manifest as well that gender is not a qualification in the field of Foreign Service because both genders can do what other can and they both have something to contribute in different aspects which make them complementary and effective.
