COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The results of a new baseline study on leadership in central Ohio uncovered an immediate opportunity to change the local economic landscape and make the area more business-friendly by increasing the numbers of women in key leadership positions. According to The Central Ohio Leadership Census (COL-Census) conducted by The Leadership Collaborative (The Institute on Women, Otterbein University, and WELD-Women for Economic and Leadership Development), the most striking gap in gender parity is in public companies, although the opportunity to improve financial results exists across the cross-section of public and private companies, governmental entities, academic institutions and non-profit organizations listed in the study.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 18, 2010 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Economic Indicator Search Tool -- The Census Bureau has introduced a new, user-friendly Internet tool that takes all the guesswork out of finding, downloading and using data from economic indicators.

I believe that the economy ultimately follows what happens to the value of dirt -- after all, you can't create more land. I sit at ground zero, as CEO of a land-services firm in the region. Having weathered three very down years in the land space, I decided to use this opportunity to offer some insight into land and some of its related value-influencing factors, to demonstrate to market watchers that land, as a bellwether, is already on its way back.
NEW YORK, May 31, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The depiction of the economy in U.S. newspapers continued to be more negative than positive in May, lengthening a long-term trend held since November 2007. In May, the Dow Jones Economic Sentiment Indicator hit 46.6, unchanged since April and more than 3 points away from the positive side of the 100-point scale.

Regional Airport.
NEW YORK, Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Following two months of strong gains, the Dow Jones Economic Sentiment Indicator slipped almost a half of a point as political unrest in the U.S. and abroad set back the recovery. The ESI dropped from 46.9 in January to 46.5 in February. The ESI continued to tread water in February, broadly maintaining levels of the previous two months. This suggests that although the recovery is embedded, it is still muted," said Dow Jones Newswires "Money Talks" columnist Alen Mattich. "There has been some erosion of sentiment during the past week as a result of the jump in oil prices triggered by the upheavals in North Africa.
As pundits and brainiacs around the country constantly attempt to determine if we are in a recession, I've been looking at my own economic indicator. I call it the Top Ramen index.
NEW YORK, Nov. 30, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Following three months of dramatic ups and downs, the Dow Jones Economic Sentiment Indicator (ESI) landed at 43.9 in November, even with October's figure. The ESI signals that the economy is in a holding pattern," Dow Jones Newswires "Money Talks" Columnist Alen Mattich said. "If it had risen sharply, confirming October's strong rise, then it would have been a very positive sign. Instead we are seeing an economy still poised between modest growth and a slipping back.
Reaching its highest point since last September, a monthly economic index jumped to 52.6 -- an indication that Utah's economy might be on an upswing.
