    Resource Dependence In Non-profit Organizations: Is It Harder To Fundraise If You Diversify Your Revenue Structure?
    (Voluntas, 2016) Sacristán López de los Mozos, Ignacio; Rodríguez Duarte, Antonio; Rodríguez Ruiz, Óscar
    This article explores how fundraising efficiency is affected by changes in diversification of revenues in non-profit organizations. It uses random effect regression and Arellano–Bond models to study this phenomenon in a sample of 10358 US non-profits during the 1997–2007 period. We find a negative impact on fundraising efficiency when NPOs alter their locus of dependence and change their pattern of diversification. This effect is impacted by organizational size and industry. Previous studies have suggested that income heterogeneity is associated with organizational stability and financial strength. Using a change (versus level) model of funding diversity, our work shows that increased diversification leads to a higher operational inefficiency that could be penalized by potential donors.

    Does a balanced gender ratio improve performance? The case of Spanish banks (1999-2010)
    (Personnel review, 2016) Rodríguez Ruiz, Óscar; Rodríguez Duarte, Antonio; Gómez Martínez, Luis
    Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to identify the dynamics of the gender diversity-to-performance relationship in the Spanish banking sector in the period 1999-2010. Specifically the authors try to study how different proportions of men and women in banking institutions lead to different levels of return on assets (ROA) and sales productivity. Design/methodology/approach – The authors use conventional panel data methods to find an optimal mix of males and females which leads to higher levels of financial results. With the aim of controlling unobserved heterogeneity, equations are estimated using the random-effects model. Findings – The findings show that the proportion of women in the workforce does not affect productivity but significantly explains ROA. In addition low-moderated levels (27 per cent) of women in technical positions optimize ROA. Originality/value – This research empirically explores the business case for gender diversity going beyond the upper echelons of organizations. The authors also study how the technical qualification of employees can determine the optimal proportion of gender groups.

    Unions’ response to corporate restructuring in Telefónica: locked into collective bargaining?
    (Employee Relations, 2015) Rodríguez Ruiz, Óscar
    Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to analyze the restructuring approach followed by the highly profitable Telefónica in its 2011 redundancy plan, and explores unions’ response to management strategy. Design/methodology/approach – The research follows a case study approach constructing a dataset with information from company reports, committee records, union documents, press releases, and other available sources such as specialized journals and newspapers. Findings – Specifically this case study tries to show how massive job cuts have been implemented through a labour-mediated downsizing strategy that mitigates contestation and industrial conflict. Originality/value – The paper tackles the relevant question of how unions respond to corporate restructuring (involving downsizing) in countries where industrial relations institutions remain relatively strongly embedded and proactive.

    Concurso de debates sobre Dirección de Recursos Humanos para los alumnos del Grado en Relaciones Laborales y Recursos Humanos y para los alumnos del Doble Grado con Derecho
    (2016) Rodríguez Ruiz, Óscar
    El objetivo del proyecto de innovación docente ha sido organizar un concurso de debate sobre temas de recursos humanos para los alumnos del Grado en Relaciones Laborales y Recursos Humanos y del Doble Grado en Derecho y Relaciones Laborales y Recursos Humanos. La utilización de debates estructurados como estrategia didáctica pretende promover el pensamiento crítico y potenciar las habilidades de comunicación de los alumnos. Los futuros profesionales de los departamentos de recursos humanos deben tener capacidades oratorias para expresar sus ideas y argumentos a empleadores y empleados. La práctica del debate como método de enseñanza puede proporcionarles estas habilidades. Desde este punto de vista, la organización de una competición de oratoria entre equipos de trabajo seleccionados de los tres grupos del segundo curso del Grado en Relaciones Laborales y Recursos Humanos más el de segundo curso del Doble Grado en Derecho y Relaciones Laborales y Recursos Humanos ha reforzado los conocimientos de la asignatura involucrando a los estudiantes en el proceso de aprendizaje.
