Our main findings are that: (1) female executives have greater likelihoods of exit than males, (2) the likelihood of exit increases with the independence of the board and decreases with the fraction of the board that is female and the average age of board members, and (3) a higher percentage of independent directors on the board lowers the probability of exit more for females than for males. Further, controlling for exit risk reduces the well-documented compensation differential between men and women.10aFinance1 aBecker-Blease, John  u/biblio/effects-executive-firm-and-board-characteristics-executive-exit00458nas a2200109   4500008004100000245007100041210006900112260002600181653001200207100002400219856010500243       2015                        eng d00aDoes Corporate Social Responsibility Attract the "Right" Investors0 aDoes Corporate Social Responsibility Attract the Right Investors  aOxford, Englandc201510aFinance1 aBecker-Blease, John  u/biblio/does-corporate-social-responsibility-attract-right-investors01178nas a2200157   4500008004100000245006300041210006200104260000900166300001300175490000700188520067700195653001200872100002400884700001800908856009400926       2015                        eng d00aNew venture legitimacy: the conditions for angel investors0 aNew venture legitimacy the conditions for angel investors  c2015  a735-749.0 v453 aFavorable legitimacy judgments by potential resource providers are critical for the survival and growth of new ventures. We examine which aspects of a venture’s activities, structures, and outcomes, as conveyed by its narrative, are associated with legitimacy judgments by potential angel investors in a sample of 176 new venture proposals. We find that entrepreneurial ventures with quality top management teams, advisors, and developed products are viewed more favorably by angel investors and likely have better access to these investors.

Our evidence suggests that gender diversity is a significant predictor of group investment behavior, and that the proportion of women angels in the group has a negative though nonlinear effect on investment likelihood. These data are most consistent with a situational interpretation that women invest differently when they are in the small minority compared with other situations. These results have important implications for the availability of funds for women entrepreneurs and call for greater participation of women investors in the angel marketplace.10aFinance1 aBecker-Blease, John1 aSohl, Jeff  u/biblio/effect-gender-diversity-angel-group-investment-000371nas a2200133   4500008004100000245003000041210003000071260000900101300001200110490000700122653001200129100002400141856007200165       2011                        eng d00aGovernance and Innovation0 aGovernance and Innovation  c2011  a947-9580 v1710aFinance1 aBecker-Blease, John  u/biblio/governance-and-innovation-101069nas a2200157   4500008004100000245005600041210005400097260000900151300001200160490000700172520058900179653001200768100002400780700001600804856009100820       2010                        eng d00aDoes Inclusion in a Smaller S&P Index Create Value?0 aDoes Inclusion in a Smaller SP Index Create Value  c2010  a307-3300 v453 aThis study finds overall increases in equity value surrounding addition to the S&P SmallCap and MidCap indexes from 1996 to 2003 and investigates sources of the value gains.
