In this research, the goal of a development-oriented organization is an organization that uses all the capacities available in the organization to reach an optimal level of service provision. Municipalities are among the semi-private organizations that the quality of services provided in them is of great concern to the public and therefore can have a great impact on citizens' satisfaction and public trust. As a result, this research was conducted with the aim of designing a development-oriented organization model in the municipalities of Kurdistan province. This research was done with the method of foundational data theory. Based on limited theoretical literature and mainly relying on interviews with 20 university faculty members who are familiar with the organizational structure of municipalities, as well as mayors and deputy mayors, it was conducted in a targeted way. Data obtained from theoretical studies and interviews were conducted in the form of open coding, selective coding and axial coding. The results obtained from the codings include development-oriented management, development-oriented employees, development-oriented policy, development-oriented structure, and development-oriented culture, which constitute the factors affecting the development-oriented organization in the municipalities of Kurdistan province. In the general summary, these results showed that the main reasons that will cause municipalities to become development-oriented include development-oriented management and development-oriented structure. Also, factors related to the main causes of development-oriented municipalities include development-oriented policy, development-oriented requirements of municipalities, including development-oriented employees, as well as background factors of the development-oriented municipalities, including development culture. Finally, the most important consequences of the central development of municipalities were identified, which include increasing public trust, increasing responsiveness and developing human resources of municipalities.

This qualitative study aims to design and articulate an intelligent digital ecosystem model tailored for the Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts, and Tourism Organization within the Web 4.0 environment. Drawing upon grounded theory methodology, data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews with 35 senior managers, digital experts, and cultural heritage specialists. The data analysis unfolded through open coding (yielding 185 primary codes), axial coding (identifying 25 key concepts), and selective coding (refining six major categories). The model’s causal conditions include the globalization of Web 4.0, rising customer demands for digital engagement, international competition, the need to digitally safeguard cultural assets, technological disparities, and the growing requirement for digitally skilled personnel. Contextual factors affecting the model’s development encompass limited infrastructure, budgetary constraints, multicultural user expectations, governmental support, and the local innovation ecosystem. At the heart of the model lies the core phenomenon: the formulation of a centralized and intelligent digital ecosystem aligned with Web 4.0 standards—featuring integrated platforms, centralized data governance, and adoption of international benchmarks. Intervening conditions such as managerial competencies, financial-economic policy challenges, organizational dynamics, and workforce readiness shape the strategic response. The proposed strategies include the implementation of augmented reality training, development of smart tourism platforms, partnerships with knowledge-based firms, cybersecurity framework design, AI-enabled chatbot deployment, and attracting external investment. The anticipated outcomes of this intelligent ecosystem include improved user satisfaction, cost-efficiency, enhanced institutional image, new revenue channels, digital documentation of cultural artifacts, and increased organizational transparency. This study contributes a localized, actionable model for intelligent digital transformation within cultural organizations, particularly those operating in emerging economies. Keywords: Smart model, Digital ecosystem, Cultural heritage, Web 4.0, Strategic transformation

In today's complex and dynamic organizational world, employee behavior is recognized as one of the key factors for organizational success. This study aimed to analyze the mechanisms for improving performance in Iranian governmental organizations and to examine the impact of organizational nudges on employee behavior. The research employed a qualitative approach using thematic analysis. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 50 participants, direct observation, and document analysis. Data analysis was conducted using thematic analysis with the assistance of MAXQDA software. The findings revealed that organizational nudges influence employee behavior through five main mechanisms: environmental, social, psychological,cultural,and technological. Environmental mechanisms reduce employee stress and increase productivity by altering workplace design and simplifying processes. Social mechanisms utilize group norms and social approval to encourage desirable behaviors among employees. Psychological mechanisms improve decision-making by leveraging cognitive biases and framing effects. Cultural mechanisms operate based on organizational values and beliefs, while technological mechanisms use digital tools to deliver nudges. The results indicated that cultural and structural characteristics of organizations significantly influence the effectiveness of nudges. For example, nudges aligned with traditional and cultural values are more likely to be accepted by employees, whereas those in conflict with these values may face resistance. Finally, it is recommended that organizations design nudges that align with their cultural context and utilize modern technologies to enhance effectiveness. Involving employees in the design and implementation of nudges, along with continuous evaluation of their effectiveness, can also contribute to improving organizational performance.This study provides practical recommendations for managers in governmental organizations to effectively guide employee behavior toward organizational goals using well-designed nudges.

In recent years, the development of digital tools and the expansion of big data resources have provided new opportunities for service enhancement and increased efficiency within tax administrations. The reforms are prerequisites for digital transformation (DT), which through substantial alterations to procedures and organizational structures, allows tax organizations to respond better to the changing taxpayer’s needs. In this regard, organizational agility is the major factor that contributes to both the speed of digital transformation and its successful implementation. On the other hand, by giving a coordinated management framework, information technology governance (ITG) supports the enhancement of DT strategies. This study aims to examine the effect of ITG on the DT maturity of the Iranian Tax Administration, through the mediating role of organizational agility. The research uses a way of description through the relationship and collection of data, which was done by questionnaires from the employees and managers of the Iranian Tax Administration. The reliability of the questionnaires was tested using Cronbach's alpha coefficient while their validity was verified through confirmatory factor analysis. Statistical data analysis was carried out using structural equation modeling and LISREL software. As per the result of this study, ITG positively affects DT maturity, which is facilitated through increased organizational agility. Therefore, tax administrations with high ITG and organization agility perform better in their digital transformation projects. Accordingly, these findings might be useful for developing digital transformation plans within tax organizations)

Organizational inertia is a significant disruptive factor in the functional adaptability of organizations to their environment. This study was conducted with the aim of identifying the antecedents and consequences of organizational inertia in Iran. The study was characterized as a review typology and relied on a systematic review method. The implementation of the systematic review was based on a structured protocol that included three major phases: research antecedents (defining the main question and question pattern), research process (determining eligibility criteria, search strategy, article selection process, and data extraction), and research outcomes (providing an overview of studies and qualitatively synthesizing findings). Ultimately, 30 articles met the final criteria for data description and synthesis. Descriptive results indicated that most studies were published in management journals, based on a quantitative approach, utilized survey methods, and focused on employee groups. Additionally, from a temporal perspective, the studies had been conducted over the past ten years, with their main issue centering on the explanation of organizational inertia. Qualitative findings also revealed that the antecedents of organizational inertia could be categorized into seven themes (structural, managerial, cognitive, communicative, capability-based, benefit-oriented, and behavioral), while the consequences of organizational inertia could be classified into four themes (normative, cognitive, performance-related, and behavioral). Given the indispensable role of organizational inertia in inhibiting the functioning of organizations in an era of change, there is an urgent need for studies adopting a systems approach to address the issue of organizational inertia.

The study of e-governance literature reveals that this field of knowledge has transformed into a jungle of unstructured and visionless theories, to the extent that it perplexes designers and implementers! This research, adopting an exploratory and foresight-oriented approach, aims to develop a dynamic and timeless model that identifies the dimensions, concepts, and indicators of e-governance in a comprehensive framework. The goal is to ensure purposeful and balanced growth of this social construct in implementation. The initial model was designed using a comparative study methodology and meta-synthesis methods. Subsequently, the identified components were tested through a Delphi questionnaire in four rounds. The level of consensus among panel members was calculated using Kendall's coefficient of concordance. To determine the adequacy of dimensions and components, their coverage, and the feasibility of implementing the model, a binomial hypothesis test was employed. Panel members included esteemed faculty members, prominent researchers related to the research topic, and senior executives specializing in e-governance.The findings depict the construct of e-governance in a four-category model comprising context, development process, content, and era. The results demonstrate that the categories of "context," "development process," and "content" are interconnected in pairs. Moreover, the final model indicates that in each "era," new and distinct "content" of e-governance emerges, necessitating new scenarios for "contextual" components. Likewise, the realization of new "context" requires scenario planning for the components of the "development process" to achieve the intended content. This growth and evolution of e-governance across various eras continue in the form of a spiral modelَ

This study is developmental in terms of purpose and exploratory in nature, which was conducted using a qualitative method and a grounded theory approach. The statistical population was the public organizations of Isfahan city, where 14 managers were selected as sample members by a purpesfull method and the theoretical saturation rule and individually semi-structured interview was used In order to collect the required data needed. After analyzing the interviews, 82 concepts were identified, which were classified into 6 categories. The results indicate the emergence of bad managers is under the influence of causal factors such as the absence of clear performance indicators in promotion and appointment, replacing relationships instead of criteria, the rule of oligarchic thinking, the weakness of the succession planning system, the weakness of the performance evaluation system and the like. Individual and organizational contextual factors as well as intervening factors also influence the emergence of this phenomenon. Strategies for preventing the appointment of bad managers have also been identified at three individual, group and organizational levels. The results also indicate that the emergence of bad managers will have negative consequences at the individual, group, organizational and extra-organizational levels. The findings can create a suitable insight in relation to the emergence of the phenomenon of bad managers and provide the context to prevent it for the planners and policy makers of the administrative system.

This article examines the phenomenon of "meeting madness" among managers, recognized as a significant challenge in workplace and organizational environments. The primary aim of this research is to identify the causes and contributing factors to the emergence of this phenomenon and to propose solutions for managers to counteract it. For this study, an advanced meta-synthesis method using artificial intelligence algorithms and natural language processing has been employed. Specifically, scripts alongside the development of advanced AI algorithms such as recurrent neural networks and genetic algorithms were utilized to search for and extract data. These algorithms, particularly the machine learning models, were capable of analyzing key concepts and emerging trends in the realm of meeting madness with high precision. Utilizing these technologies has led to the creation of a centralized database that organizes data for subsequent analyses, reduces human error, and enables quicker and more accurate data analysis. Various causes of this phenomenon include issues in meeting planning and organization, defects in organizational culture and communications, psychological and emotional issues of managers and employees, among other reasons. Following this identification, the consequences of meeting madness have been detailed, and ultimately, a set of practical and applicable solutions such as improving managerial skills, reforming culture and organizational structure, enhancing effective communications, and introducing innovative methods like leadership symbiosis, meeting diplomacy, decision-making quantization in meetings, and organizational pluralism have been presented.

Health is as one of the important requirements of equity and development in all societies. One of the important goals of public health policies in Iran that everyone can access health services fairly, but most of the time this goal is achieved very weak when it will be implemented. Therefore, it is necessary to design a suitable model for the implementation of public health policies. the research method is mixed, first method is qualitative and data-based theory strategy. To gather the required data, the researcher conducted semi-structured interviews with 15 policy specialists and health experts. The interviews were analyzed through coding to according to Strauss and Corbin’s paradigm model. The results of data analysis finally research theoretical saturation as it consisted of 6 main categories and 24 subcategories and 120 concepts and to create a model that identifies the causal, context and intervention and their impact on the central phenomenon that same the implementation of public health policies based on equity.then this model was surveyed by 15 health experts using fuzzy Delphi method with questionnaire. Then removing, modifying and adding a number of indicators, finally 58 concepts, 26 sub-categories and 6 main categories were confirmed. Model of research was accredited by questionnaire was designed based on the qualitative findings of the previous stage, a sample size of 384 health sector experts was surveyed based on Cochran's formula, then the data were collected using structural equation modeling by Smart PLS software. All of indicators, sub-categories, main categories of the model are desired range, which shows there are significant relationships between the model of variables.

To overcome environmental changes and challenges, today's organizations need the ability to leapfrog through seven quantum skills (quantum vision, quantum thinking, quantum feeling, quantum knowledge, quantum action, quantum presence, and quantum trust). to be Because organizational culture is an engine and driving force that supports a certain type of activity and skills of employees. To promote and support these skills, an appropriate organizational culture should be identified and formulated. The current research is based on the pragmatism paradigm in terms of its developmental goal and research approach. Considering that the design of complex models, such as the culture model of organizational change, requires a deep understanding of the cultural and organizational context, the qualitative method and narrative research strategy have been used. 47 narratives were compiled by purposeful sampling methodThe results showed that there are five subcultures including: 1- the culture of observation and monitoring that improves performance in the light of quantum vision 2- the culture of thinking about the future of Kavaneh in line with quantum thinking 3- the culture of self-improvement and self-improvement (self-creation) Along with the knowledge and feeling of quantum 4- the culture of meritocracy and selection in the light of quantum action 5- the culture of empathy and well-being in the shadow of existence and trust of quantum, supports the organizational leap.To strengthen the constructive culture of organizational leap, these five subcultures should be strengthened.

This research was done with the aim of explaining the components and providing a model of organizational happiness among the employees of the Ministry of Energy. According to the practical purpose, the research is combined or mixed in terms of the research method. The statistical community of the qualitative part was knowledgeable experts. The random sampling method was cluster and stratified and the criterion for determining the sample size was reaching theoretical saturation, which was achieved after 13 interviews. The statistical population of the quantitative stage includes all the executive, administrative and expert departments, including managers and senior experts and employees of the Ministry of Energy. To calculate the sample size, Cochran's formula for unlimited communities was used, and the number of samples is 384 people. Qualitative data analysis was done using the foundational data theory and quantitative data analysis was done using the partial least square (PLS) technique. Based on the results of qualitative analysis, six categories of factors were identified, including causal factors, contextual factors, intervening conditions, strategies, consequences, and central phenomena. After identifying the components involved in organizational happiness, the relationship between the components of the paradigm model of the data base theory showed There is a relationship.
