Abstract

Recenti filoni di ricerca in campo manageriale si sono concentrati sulla diversita di genere e sull?impatto che quest?ultima esercita sulla performance organizzativa. Nonostante ci siano ormai numerosi studi volti a indagare questa relazione nel campo delle imprese private, minore attenzione e stata dedicata alle aziende pubbliche e, tra queste, alle aziende sanitarie. L?obiettivo di questo studio e quello di investigare la relazione tra diversita di genere e performance economico-finanziaria nelle aziende ospedaliere pubbliche italiane. A tal fine, il presente articolo analizza i dati di genere e di performance, relativi al periodo 2012- 2018, di 63 aziende attraverso regressioni Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) su dati panel. I risultati evidenziano una relazione significativa tra l?equilibrio di genere e la performance economico- finanziaria.
