The current research was done with the aim of designing a model to improve the performance of start-up accelerators and identifying its dimensions and components. This research is in the category of mixed exploratory research in terms of practical purpose and in terms of method. The current research was carried out in two parts: qualitative (supercomposition and Delphi) and quantitative. The population studied in the qualitative section includes 25 Persian and Latin articles related to the improvement of performance in startups, which were selected by the census method in the meta-composite method. The statistical population in the Delphi section included 30 management faculty members and managers of companies related to start-up accelerators. In the quantitative section, 250 samples of accelerator employees were selected using a systematic random stratified method. The data collection tool is a questionnaire, the validity of which was obtained and confirmed through the methods of construct validity and factor loadings, as well as the calculation of Cronbach's alpha. In order to analyze the data, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis as well as path analysis were used using spss and smart pls statistical software. Based on exploratory factor analysis, 73 questionnaire items have been classified into 12 main components and 61 sub-components. The results of confirmatory factor analysis show that 12 human resources components of coaching, management techniques, customer perspective, continuous improvement, support, financial relations, internal processes, business model, program ecosystem, competitors and environment are effective in improving the performance of start-up accelerators.

In the current research, the content of the lectures of Tadbir and Omid government in the field of macro management of government organizations, the first and second term of the presidency, were analyzed from the perspective of the application of cohesive devices and in the framework of the role orientation of Halidi and Hassan (1976). The research was conducted in a descriptive and analytical way, and its content was four lectures in the field of macro management of government organizations, which were randomly selected. Cohesive devices were extracted in four lectures and their frequency was measured. The percent of occurrence of each device was also obtained. After checking the data, it was determined, the first lecture with 474 items, the second with 444 items, the fourth with 421 items, and the third with 411 items are in the first to fourth ranks in the application of cohesive devices, respectively. In the first lecture, reference was the most and knowledge and time were the least cohesive devices. In the second lecture, repetition and introduction were the most and the least cohesive devices, respectively. In the third lecture as well, conjunctive elements were the most and knowledge was the least cohesive devices and in the fourth lecture, reference was the most and introduction was the least cohesive devices. In order to perform a more detailed statistical analysis and find significance in the distribution of cohesive devices in each of the lectures, the chi-square test was used. Based on the results obtained at level p<0.05 there is a significant difference between the distribution of cohesive devices used in each of the lectures.

The aim of the current research was to design a pattern for emergence of bad managers in organizations. 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.

Structures and processes in any organization are the most important dimension, in other words, the software of organizations to perform their missions. The judiciary, with the serious mission of justice and the realization of justice in society, has complex and multidimensional structures and processes, and based on these structures and processes, it carries out this serious mission. In fact, it should be said that the effectiveness of the judiciary as a feedback loop of the country's governance system will have a direct impact on the overall efficiency of the system, and therefore continuous identification of damage to the structures and processes of the judiciary can improve the performance of the judiciary and consequently It will become the system of governing the country. The present study aimed to identify the structural damage of the judiciary; After studying the Judicial Transformation Document, and other related research in this field, and interviewing judges and experts, 83 structural injuries were counted and classified into 11 general categories. In the next step, using interpretive structural modeling and Mikmak analysis, they were prioritized and classified, and it was identified that the four disadvantages were the lack of specialized proceedings and the rules of procedure; Lack of relative transparency in litigation; Lack of appropriate mechanisms for feedback, learning and intelligence of the judiciary and weakness in the budgeting system and allocation of financial resources; Is one of the most effective structural damages in the judiciary and the lack of coherent process mechanisms to reduce delays, which is the most important issue in the judiciary, has been identified as one of the most effective damages that the judiciary must eliminate eleven damages at higher levels solving and thereby reduce trial delays.

In a situation where we are witnessing the increasing growth of network-based services and systems, with all processes being limited to information and communication technology platforms, some people called netocrats in organizations with domination in databases, communication platforms and computer networks and application systems, they can create intangible and managed dependence in organizations. The current research is in the positivist and critical group as a paradigm, and it was carried out with a mixed (qualitative and quantitative) and systematic Grounded theory method. Data were collected in the qualitative phase using semi-structured interviews with 17 organizational and academic experts. In the data analysis with the coding method following the constant comparison of concepts, 246 conceptual codes were extracted and similar items were categorized in 32 categories and then based on Strauss and Corbin's model in six dimensions of central phenomenon, causal, contextual and intervening conditions and strategies and consequences, were placed. Then in the quantitative stage, with a statistical sample of 350 people and using confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation method, the model was confirmed by SPSS 26 and Amos 26 software. Applying the results of this research will develop, improve and establish psychological security for the organization and managers along with the simultaneous benefit of new technologies as well as the knowledge and expertise of netocrats.

Government data collected from public funds and contains valuable data, if opened, can be usable in various areas, can stimulate innovation. It is necessary to investigate contexts and factors affecting the Open Government Data driven Innovation (OGDI). The main question of research is: How does open government data lead to the creation of innovation? So that, trying to answer six sub-questions consisting: causal conditions, background conditions, intervening conditions, main phenomenon, strategies, and consequences about OGDI. This research, according to mixed method (qualitative-quantitative), first used the grounded theory based on Strauss-Corbin method; then due to qualitative analysis of data obtained from interviews, three-stage coding was used; next a quantitatively evaluated done by using Shannon's entropy method. Based on data sufficiency principle, up to theoretical saturation stage, 11 semi-structured interactive interviews with experts were done. Due to results obtained from interviews, 6 main categories according to the sub-questions of the research, and 20 sub-categories containing 95 concepts were extracted. Attention requirements per each main categories, subcategories and concepts were suggested for future research. Proposed theoretical model shows that, at first step, if "setting of supporting laws for OGDI", and "the demands of external stakeholders" (causal conditions) are done correctly; and at second step if simultaneously "market development and investment in OGDI" (context conditions), "drafting the data governance document" (main phenomenon), and "utilizing the capacity of the private sector in form of PPP"(intervention condition), executed correctly; also in third step, by using all types of innovation (strategy), it will achieve consequences such as transparency in the organization, solving "stagnation of private businesses" and "unemployment in society" problems.

The Expectancy Silence is the result of the barrage of unpleasant experiences from the poisoned arteries in the body of organizations, which forces some employees to continue office life by hiding expectations, strategies and tactics. Therefore, since about this phenomenon, a deep silence has covered the study space of organizational behavior management knowledge; This research aims to reveal the phenomenon of visible and invisible layers in the context of western governorates of the country (including Ilam, Kermanshah, Lorestan, Kurdistan and Hamedan) through morphology. This essay is based on exploratory mixed methodology. In the qualitative part, the basic theory of the systematic approach was used, and in the quantitative phase, the one-sample t-test was used for its validation and generalizability. The participants in the research were 18 students who were invited to participate in the research through the theoretical sampling method. The results of the research showed that in the deepest conceptual layer of the phenomenon of Expectancy Silence, the driving forces of administrative panic, quiet professions, strategic patience and shrewd situationalism are located, and the most superficial layer occurs in the form of behaviors such as radar avoidance, salaciousness and destructiveness. Also, the results of the validation of the model through the T-Tech test showed that, according to the experts, the conceptual model has theoretical validity.

Today, governments are facing severe financial shortfalls in financing higher education globally. Therefore, due to the necessity, they have established the tuition policy in higher education and are always looking for strategies to increase the effectiveness of this policy. Based on this, the upcoming research aims to study the policy components of the tuition economy in the public sector. This research was done in two stages. In the first stage, the components of tuition policy in the higher education system were extracted using the Meta-synthesis method. For this purpose, specialized research keywords were searched in reliable scientific databases in the period (1990-2021). Finally, among 229 articles, 107 articles were included in the final analysis. In the second step, the qualitative section's findings were weighted using the Shannon entropy technique. In total, seven determining components of tuition policy; student (individual, family); University (complexity in tuition pricing, diversity and a plurality of university policies, academic quality of the university); Higher education (leadership in higher education, rules, and regulations in higher education); State (legal and political mechanisms of State, collaborative and supportive mechanisms of State); Macro governance (good governance, macro laws, and regulations) and environmental (cultural norms, social norms) were identified. The student and environmental components had more weight than other components. In the end, the solutions for the higher education system were stated, including considering the concept of differential tuition, which means paying attention to various factors in determining tuition policies based on the rate of return of academic fields, degrees, geographical region, etc.

The expert workforce is essential for the achievement of successes on both macro and micro levels. Consequently, due to the changes in the demographics of population and society, the postponement of the retirement age of employees is a significant issue.This research has adopted an interpretive or constructivist research philosophy and the multi-grounded theory research strategy of Goldkuhl & Cronholm. Semi-structured interviews were utilized as the data collection method and theoretical sampling was conducted from the research community which included employees of the Ministry of Energy who have postponed their retirement. Thirty participants were interviewed. It’s also noteworthy that the research is practical in terms of its purpose.The findings of this research demonstrate that the model of postponing the retirement age of employees in the Ministry of Energy is primarily based on job conditions, as well as factors such as environmental, organizational, and individual contexts and organizational, individual, and governmental causal conditions. Some of the obstacles in this model include the direct intervention of the government and the circumvention of the law, which ultimately leads to a multitude of positive and negative consequences. The economic pressures, the issue of population aging, and the increased ratio of elderly people to young people will reduce the labor force and create difficulties for governments and various organizations, including the Ministry of Energy and pension funds. Hence, the adoption of the issue of postponing retirement age and keeping more of the labor force is a possible solution due to the positive outcomes it may potentially yield in the economic, social, organizational, and individual fields and aspects.

The required data was collected through a researcher-made questionnaire, whose validity and reliability were confirmed through quantitative methods. In order to analyze the data, Lisrel software and Delphi technique and fuzzy inference system in the form of MATLAB software were used. The results showed that the model has three individual, organizational and cultural dimensions, and the organizational dimension with a factor loading of 0.83 has the largest contribution in explaining administrative Trading. Also, the individual value system component with a factor of 0.6 has the largest contribution in explaining the individual dimension; The ineffective evaluation system component with a factor loading of 0.75 has the largest contribution in explaining the organizational dimension and the short-sighted component with a factor loading of 0.75 has the largest contribution in explaining the cultural dimension. The results of the fuzzy inference system also showed that the minimum level of Trading in the organization is 0.464, and most of it is caused by individual Trading tendencies. In addition, the management of organizational and cultural factors has a significant impact on the control of administrative Trading. Based on the results, it can be said that paying attention to employing competent and ethical people is the first step in dealing with administrative Trading.

The present research aimed to explain the mediating effect of empowerment in the relationship between transformational leadership and employee satisfaction in Iran Khodro Diesel Company. The method was quantitative and practical in terms of purpose, descriptive survey in terms of nature, and correlation and path analysis in terms of implementation. Statistical society includes all supervisors of Iran Khodro Diesel Company, numbering 150 people, and due to its small size, all members were selected as a sample using the whole number method. The research tools were the questionnaire of empowerment (Laschinger et al., 2001), transformational leadership (Bass and Auliou, 2004), and job satisfaction (Hackman and Oldham, 1976) which their validity was checked and verified by formal and content methods and their reliability was obtained through Cronbach's Alpha (0.81). The data were analyzed in the descriptive and inferential sections. The results showed that transformational leadership has a positive and significant effect on empowerment (effect coefficient 0.77), empowerment on employees’ job satisfaction (effect coefficient 0.67), and transformational leadership on employees’ job satisfaction (effect coefficient 0.66). The effect of transformational leadership on the empowerment and employees’ job satisfaction shows that managers of Iran Khodro Diesel Company should pay attention to the topic of transformational leadership, empowerment, and their components by knowing the importance of each of the above variables; take more effective steps to improve the employees’ job satisfaction of and create the conditions for improving the quality of products and increasing customer’s satisfaction favorably.

The human resources architecture model has designed the structure of human capital based on the two components of strategic value and the uniqueness of skills, considering the wide scope of providing government services and the central role of the intelligence component in determining the performance of human resources as the most valuable resource of the organization, the link between 3 The component of value, skill and intelligence, identifying relevant indicators and determining the importance of each of these indicators at different administrative levels of the Ministry of Energy's headquarters has led to the design of a new model. The type of research method of the current research is mixed. In the first phase, after a library study using the quantitative content analysis and the fuzzy Delphi techniques, the primary indicators were summarized and in the statistical part, the relationships were examined using the fuzzy DANP technique, the weight of each specific index and the equation of each organizational level were discovered. The results indicate that the indicators can be classified into three general, common and specific sections. Among the general indicators that have been repeated in all three levels of the organization, there is the reliability index, and among the specific indicators at the expert level, the problem focus index, at the group head level, the consultation index, and at the deputy director general level, the willingness to reform and the improvement of systems index have been allocated the most weight. Also, the results confirm that the weight of the value component at the level of the deputy general manager is more than the 2 components of intelligence and skill at the same level. Also, the weight of the skill component in this level is higher compared to the previous levels. At the end, the research model was approved by the experts.

The organization's excellence and inefficient employees are considered the cause of its problems and failures. However, less research has comprehensively and coherently addressed employee efficiency. The main purpose of this study was to provide a theoretical model of efficient and inefficient employees and investigate their characteristics in the public sector, not only to fill the existing study gap but also to help increase knowledge in this field. The methodological principles of classic database theory (Glaserian) were used in this study concerning theoretical literature, participant recruitment, data collection, analysis, and theory development. In this regard, in-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 experts in the water industry in Isfahan province, and the obtained data were analyzed in three stages: open coding, selective coding, and theoretical coding. Data analysis showed four types of employees in terms of efficiency, which were conceptualized with the titles of proactive employees, reactive employees, procrastinative employees, and restive employees. Data analysis also showed that the mentioned types were investigated and analyzed through the typology matrix of efficient and inefficient employees. Identifying the types of employees in terms of efficiency and explaining their characteristics will help improve the efficiency of human resources and deal with inefficiency.
