All 28 members of the U.S. Women’s Soccer Team, led by co-captain Megan Rapinoe, have filed a lawsuit against the United States Soccer Federation, accusing the organization of “institutionalized gender discrimination.” USSF pays male players far more than women, despite the fact that the men’s team has yet to play in a World Cup final and failed to even qualify for last year’s tournament. The Women’s World Cup attracted 14 million TV viewers in the U.S. alone – an audience that was 22% greater than the championship game for their male counterparts. Now new research in the Harvard Business Review shows that women are beating men in another area: business leadership skills.
