this study was to design a revenue-generating model for sports delegations of Iran. The research method was qualitative studies with grounded theory approach. Data were collected using interviews and document review. After conducting 15 in-depth and semi-structured interviews with the statistical population of the research, the main categories were extracted after completing the coding process. Purposeful sampling and snowball sampling continued until theoretical saturation. The data analysis results were obtained using MAXQDA qualitative analysis software in three stages of open, axial and selective coding. So, during the process of open coding categories include: causal condition, contextual condition, intervening factors, actions and strategies, outcomes were extracted from the sponsorship of sport for all; Then in axial coding stage, the connection between this following categories of causal condition (funding from the side activities of the board, funding from events, funding from places available, funding from registration), contextual condition (entry of legal partners, capital measures, financing of funds, provision of current funds), intervening factors (planning barriers, governance barriers, institutional barriers, hardware and software barriers), action and interaction strategies (governance measures, effective action on attracting capital, playing the role of social responsibility, proposal, targeting revenue generation, strengthening the image, understanding the goals of partners), and the consequences (increase funding channels, reduce costs and implement revenue-generating measures) in terms of coding paradigm was determined; also in selective coding phases, each component of coding paradigm described, The story line depicts and the theory was created, Finally.the judgment propositions and strategies hypotheses of research were formulated

The impact of organizational culture on productivity ensures the survival of the organization in the current competitive era. Karate federation has attracted considerable attention in recent years. Therefore, the study is to explain the impact of the dimensions of organizational culture with the mediatory role of innovation in productivity of karate practitioners of Isfahan.
The participantes included of 341 voluntary Isfahanian karate-kas, which were selected using stratified sampling in a convenient manner that were divided into 4groups: Group1 (applying independent variable/conducting pre-test/post-test), Group2 (applying independent variable/conducting post-test), Group3 (conducting pre-test/post-test), Group4 (conducting post-test). Human resources productivity, innovation, Robbins questionnaire, Hersi and Goldsmith questionnaire, and Madsij questionnaire were used, respectively. After taking the pre-test, an 18-hour educational class of organizational culture was held for the samples in the Groups1 and2. So after six months, a post-test was taken again. Descriptive statistic indices, simple ANOVA test, and VAF test via the SPSS software were used to analyze the data. The significance level was set at P<0/05.
The results showed that organizational culture training was effective and the mean scores of organizational culture, innovation and productivity in the post-test increased significantly. The effect of mediating the variable of innovation and components of attention to detail, boldness, risk-taking and stability of culture-building on the productivity of part-time manpower was (VAF<0/8, P=0/000); While the whole effect of organizational culture with the mediating role of innovation on productivity depended on the components of individual creativity, team orientation, attention to individuals and consequentialism (VAF>0/8, P=0/000).
Paying attention to the type of components of organizational culture in creating general or partial effects on increasing productivity with the mediating role of innovation in elite karatekas of Isfahan province is important.

The data were collected through the snow ball method, deep and semi-structured interviews.Then, the data resulted from twenty interviews were encoded and analyzed through grounded theorymethod. The data were analyzed through open, axial and selective coding. The second phase of the study (quantitative phase) was done quantitatively using structural equation modeling method.For this purpose, 29 questions of the questionnaire were used based on the model of sport for all in Iran (derived from the qualitative phase of the study).From Karate Premier League 278 participants were selected based on Morgan table.

Descriptive statistics, graphs, mean and standard deviation and inferential statistics of Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Pearson correlation coefficient and structural equation model and SPSS and Smart-PLS software were used for analysis . The results showed that diversity management had a positive component it had a negative impact. The mediating role of perception of social identity was confirmed. Since among the components of human resource productivity, the component of attracting talented employees has received the most impact from the variable of diversity management. Therefore, by focusing on diversity management programs, organizations seek to attract employees with the necessary capabilities and abilities and can increase people’s productivity ana performance and thus success.
