TODAY’S TOPICS:

This is interesting …A study by Syracuse University found that when more women are in executive levels at corporations, those corporations tend to have employees who behave better. For example -- the researchers found that NFL teams with more female execs saw a drop in the number of player arrests. And NFL teams with a “critical mass” of women (two or more) in executive positions had a 21% decrease in criminal incidents. “Our research suggests that firms searching for preventive and remedial solutions to misconduct should consider a basic structural solution to this problem: ensuring that there is a critical mass of women on the top management team,” said Professor of Sports Management Mary Graham.

And it's not just the NFL or sports teams -- it's all corporations and organizations. “Our findings also have implications for organizations beyond those employing professional sport players, particularly visible organizations with high-profile employees, such as media and entertainment companies; and public-facing entities such as courts, schools, and government entities,” said Bhavneet Walia, an Assistant Professor of Public Health.

And another case for hiring more women …A Harvard study found that women are better doctors. According to the study, patients in the hospital who receive care from a female doctor are less likely to die and are also less likely to be hospitalized again, than if they were seen by a male doctor.

And a place for celebrating women …There’s a new hotel in Washington, D.C., called Hotel Zena, that is basically a celebration of women. Photos, portraits, sculptures and other artwork dedicated to female icons and female empowerment are everywhere – including the exterior, which features two women warriors. (Insider
