Nowadays, competition in various business environments requires confrontation with plenty of opportunities and challenges. It is therefore necessary for the managers to apply some strategic control model for the purpose of predicting, effective strategic guidance of the organization as well as timely control and response to the movements of the rivals and environmental developments. Such a strategic control model should be able to turn the strategic control to a continuous, internal and ongoing stream in addition to guaranteeing the survival of the organization and realization of the organizational goals. The present research is an attempt to explain the pattern of strategic control with a self-control approach using qualitative research method and grounded theory. Data sampling has been made using purposeful and snowball sampling methods. Semi-structured interviews have been used as the tool for gathering data and data analysis has been carried out using grounded theory paradigmatic model. The results confirm that the main category is "implementation of strategic control in the organization with an internal look at strategic control (self-control)" which has been developed by the causal factors and a set of contextual and intervening elements that lead to two main organizational and individual outcomes through strategies.

The recreating government with the entrepreneurial approach is not a simple reconsideration or partial interpretation of management, but a comprehensive change in the role of community management and the relationship between government and citizens that replaces directing leadership with enterprise. This qualitative meta-analysis study investigates the studies on the field of entrepreneurial government and provides a regular formulation of them. To accomplish this, 68 articles and reports on the entrepreneurial government have been searched through scientific databases of the country and abroad over the past 10 years (2008-2018) and were reviewd in two sections of "Descriptive meta-analysis findings" and "Qualitative evaluation of articles". A meta-analysis of the Entrepreneurial Government papers shows that studies in this field are less focused on operational aspects and more dealt with theoretical discussions and general concepts. In most of these studies, the indices concerning the entrepreneurial government theory have not been explained in accordance with the indigenous conditions of Iran. In this study, however, the conceptual model of the entrepreneurial government has been outlined in terms of the Iranian indigenous conditions including the macro policies, good governance, social justice, mission orientation, social-cultural values, decentralization, customer orientation, market orientation, and advocacy.

In this regard, the present study was conducted to identify the factors that cause destructive behaviors of staff at Payam Noor University of Karaj. This study is a descriptive survey in terms of purpose and method of data collection. In addition, the present study has been done using a qualitative-quantitative research methodology. In the first stage, to identify the factors causing malicious behaviors, 10 professors, faculty members and experts were interviewd face-to-face. A qualitative content analysis was used to design a questionnaire for quantitative part. The statistical population of the study consisted of 245 employees of Payam-e-Noor University of Alborz. The sample size was 150 individuals selected using Cochran formula. The instrument for collecting data was standard questionnairs. The reliability of these questionnaires which was calculated through Cronbach's alpha coefficient formula was 0.91. Structural equation modeling software was used to analyze the collected data. The results indicate that emotional intelligence and leader-member interaction have the opposite effect on malicious behaviors, and in contrast, injustice, stress, and personality features, including introversion, incompatibility, lack of conscientiousness, neuroticism, and inattention to experience have direct impact on destructive behaviors.

The imbalance between responsibility and authority means disregarding one of the most important principles of delegation that, given the implications of this issue for the individual and the present research organization, seeks to identify its various dimensions and explain the balancing strategies by analyzing this phenomenon. The strategy used in this study is grounded theory based on emerging approach. The study population consisted of managers of public organizations in Mashhad, among whom 19 were selected through targeted sampling method to reach the theoretical saturation.The research tool was a semi-structured interview. MAXQDA qualitative analysis software was utilized to analyze the data, and open, axial and selective coding processes were usesd in this regard. The accomplished analysis using continuous comparisons in the actual and theoretical coding process showed 193 codes, 72 concepts, 16 classes, and 6 categories, which led to the final model of research on the axial category, named the imbalance between responsibility and authority.

Organizations seek to accomplish their goals by hiring their staff. Organizational conditions in terms of physical space, workplace and laws, as well as the ethical and behavioral characteristics of employees provide the context for some employees to elude from work and absent in performance while they are present physically at work. Investigating the behavioral pattern of invisible employees is the aim of this research which has been done based on the foundation data method. The study, which was conducted in cultural organizations and educational centers in Qom, was based on limited theoretical literature and mainly based on interviews with 12 people (snowball method) from professors and experts in the humanities. The propositions of the study were obtained in the form of open coding, selective coding, and axial coding. Internal validity coefficient was used to ensure the validity of research and three stage-qualitative reliability was used to calculate research reliability. The results of this study show that proper staff selection, reforming structures and laws, reinforcing religious and spiritual beliefs, making employees aware of the consequences of their actions, and reforming socio-political relationships can greatly reduce the phenomenon of invisible employees.
