Effective leadership is essential for organizations aiming for growth in the coming decades. The aim of this reseach is Analyzing the Effect of Memetic in organization and this effect on organizational Incivility with the role of leadership. This reseach is applied based on purpose and used a descriptive survey methodology. Statistical population includes official (permanent) and staff employees with at least 5 years of service experience in the Planning and Human Capital Deputy of District 5 of Tehran Municipality, with a sample of 212 personnel selected through simple random sampling based on Cochran's formula. Data was collected using questionnaire and in order to analyze data using structural equation modeling with SmartPLS software version 4. Based on the research findings, validity, reliability, and the model were approved. The result indicate that focusing on organizational memes positively influences on visionary and humorous and forgiveness-based leadership styles, which in turn significantly reduce organizational truma. Moreover, these leadership styles (visionary, humorous and forgiveness-based) have negatively impact organizational truma. Also visionary, humorous and forgiveness-based leadership styles acting as mediators between memetic in the organization and organizational truma. Integrating memetic into leadership training can cultivate leaders who enhance performance and foster organizational well-being. As organizations face growing pressures in this decade, adaptive leadership becomes crucial. Therefore, leaders should foster a culture that institutionalizes desirable leadership styles within the municipality.

Business cynicism is one of the important phenomenon’s of business difficulties in present century. Many factors are effective in appearance of cynicism in businesses. In field of business cynicism and its effective factor, lots of studies have been accomplished but there is no comprehensive research that included all of these factors and finding the relationship between them. The aim of this research is recognition of effective factors on business cynicism and designing a model related to their relationship. The research is a mixed exploratory research including two stages: qualitative and quantitative-qualitative. In qualitative stage, first of all, effective factors on business cynicism (9 factors) were recognized by studying the literature of business cynicism and also using meta-combination method. The factors were classified in three categories of personal and individual factors (factors related to personality and individual and mental factors), organizational factors (bad organizational atmosphere, cynicism to organizational changes, injustice perception, poor performance and negative perception of managerial acts) and occupational factors. At the next step, the relationship between these factors was determined by interpretive-structural modeling and was analyzed integratedly. In the modeling stage, a questionnaire was used to get the idea of 15 experts of organizational behavior. Those were selected by snowball method. Results led to classification of effective factors on business cynicism and design a model out of the factors. The model shows the factors and the relationship and communication between them. At the end, interpretation of the model, analysis of model's levels and relationship between dimensions were done and solutions were suggested to prevent appearing of this phenomenon in organizations.
