Maybe CEOs of ill performing companies are more likely to be fired, and their replacement less likely to be a woman (since there are few candidates overall). Just guessing - that's probably not it. But I think results like that are generally interesting as something seems to be going on. I just can't stand it if people jump to conclusions, usually to the ones that support their biases. It would be great to learn what is really going on.
