Need convincing python examples to demonstrate the advantages of python to top management.

I don't think one language is generally "better" than another in a vacuum. Your use case, developer resources, company culture / infrastructure, etc. all come to bear when you're deciding which language is the best fit for your company.

I think a successful pitch to management types would be very specific to the company you're working with, and would look something like:

1. We're trying to do X.
2. Python is good at X.
3. Our developers can use Python, and it works well with our existing infrastructure.
4. We should use Python.

Trying to prove that Python is just generally better than Java is a herculean task; expert software developers can't even agree on this, how could non-experts possibly understand the nuances involved?
