Dissemination and free access to information of government organizations with constant care and removal of obstacles related to it guarantees the health of society and the organization. Therefore, the phenomenon of self-censorship in the public relations of government organizations should be considered as one of the major obstacles in this direction. Recognizing and analyzing the causes and contexts of this phenomenon can be a necessary and important step in removing these obstacles. This study was conducted with the aim of in-depth study of the experiences of public relations managers of government organizations in Yazd. It wants to discover and identify their causes and motives in self-censorship. This research has been done in the framework of qualitative studies and in a phenomenological way. The reliability of the research data has been verified based on four criteria of validity; Portability; Verifiability; And reliability. The research findings were classified into 15 sub-topics and 4 main topics. The data show that four factors are influential at the individual, organizational, and extra-organizational levels, including insecurity and need, command-orientation, adherence to the prevailing discourse, and expediency. Considering the great impact of the mentioned factors on the views of public relations managers of government organizations in self-censorship, it can be concluded that facilitating the flow of information as one of the necessities of community development requires serious attention of officials and policy makers to the position and role of public relations.

About a decade has passed since the establishment and implementation of the current performance management system of Iranian public sector organizations according to the criteria of the Civil Service Management Act. Nevertheless, this system has not been scientifically and comprehensively pathologized. Since the possible failures and shortcomings of the current system will cause deep performance gaps if they are placed together and continue, so the purpose of the present research is the pathology of the mentioned system. First, the literature on performance management (at the organizational level) was studied and the selected sources were reviewed, classified, and thematically analyzed. Then, semi-structured interviews with nineteen performance management experts in public sector organizations were conducted based on the extracted themes. Experts were identified by snowball technique considering scientific, experimental and perceptual conditions. Subsequently, inductive thematic analysis of the interviews data and pathology were performed. In this phase, 500 codes were assigned to the data. Findings of this research include a global theme (the failures of mentioned system), 6 organizing themes (major failures including planning problems, legal and contextual deficiencies, proficiency problems and poor insight, conflict of interest problems, executive and logistical deficiencies, theoretical problems in the current model) and 55 basic themes (minor failures). Considering the variety, multiplicity and scope of the mentioned failures, corrective measures should be taken with the participation of various specialties in the field of management knowledge. Some reforms are possible within this system, while others require improvements in other subsystems of the Iranian administrative system.

Theorizing as one of the tools used by researchers to develop and expand the frontiers of science and knowledge in different intellectual-philosophical paradigms is done with various methods and strategies. Metaphorical strategy has been accepted as one of the theorizing methods in the symbolic interpretive paradigm among experts. In the field of public management and circulation of managers, several metaphors have been presented so far. In the present study, emphasizing the value of the theories that have been presented so far, the aim is to present a new theory in the field of public management and circulation of managers to better describe and interpret Government is in different systems of government. In this study, with the approach of metaphorical reasoning and the general method of theorizing (Danaee Fard,2009), the theory of public management with focus on government managers and their displacement is presented as rain clouds. It has a comprehensive and holistic view on explaining, describing and conveying the concepts of key dimensions of public management, especially the transfer of government managers, and at the same time examines the ambiguities and neglected questions in previous theories and considers these issues critically in a new theory. On the other hand, this theory has the ability and flexibility to explain and describe government management in developed, developing and underdeveloped societies and has the power to convey acceptable concepts

This study sought to design a framework for teaching foresight to top managers of governmental organizations in the Islamic Republic of Iran. First, the research literature in three areas of "management of governmental organizations", "foresight" and "teaching foresight" was reviewed. Then, using the "Grounded Theory" method and using the "in-depth interview" tool, first-hand data were collected. This data in three different phases, through "open coding, axial coding and selective coding", were analyzed. Based on the research findings, a general framework for teaching foresight to top managers of Iranian governmental organizations was presented in which in addition to the category of foresight education as a axial category, other categories related to this field such as causal conditions, contextual conditions, intervening conditions, strategies and consequences were also introduced. Therefore, this macro framework can be used as a general model for teaching foresight to top managers of governmental organizations in the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Despite the introduction of value co-creation models, its various dimensions and components in universities are still unclear. The purpose of this article is to identify the factors, components and consequences of value co-creatin of university emphasizing the fourth and fifth generation universities and, consequently, to present a conceptual model based on it. In order to conduct this research, in addition to in-depth study using the meta-synthesis method to identify factors, components and consequences of value co-creation, fuzzy Delphi technique has been used to refine the factors and components. The survey was conducted in four stages and the results of each stage were refined using the formulas of the fuzzy Delphi method. Finally, the model of value co-creation of university with emphasis on value-creating and civilization-building universities with 16 factors, 23 components and 13 outcomes, each designed in three categories, has been presented as a proposed model for value co-creation of university. In this way, universities can analyze the current situation and optimally extract successful experiences, and present plans and measures to improve.

A paradigm is central to leading organizations today: human capital. Talent management can turn human capital knowledge into Added Value. The aim of this study is to future the plans of the government and parliament to attract and retain talent and to categorize the possible future in the field of talent management in the final governmental organization of Iran by creating favorable, undesirable, acceptable and tolerable scenarios. This research has been done by qualitative method and Futures Studies. The type of applied research is case study and trend study. The data collection method is the Delphi method. The Delphi panel included 10 academics and executives from government agencies. Structural analysis and interaction analysis were used in this study. The results of the present study showed that the possible future in relation to talent management includes a range that on the one hand has led to the encouragement of talents and by using a strategic document has led to attracting and retaining elites and talents in organizations. On the other hand, it will lead to the loss of talents and their withdrawal from government and national organizations. Based on the idea of incentives, government agencies should review, continue, and modify their incentives to take any action to retain talent and strive to sustain and retain talented individuals by providing appropriate and motivating benefits. On the basis of bribery, government organizations, while encouraging and giving special privileges to talented and elite people, must have the tools to encourage their human capital so that the greed for foreign facilities is removed from their hearts.

Considering the wide consequences of ineffective decisions made by public sector managers that lead to waste of resources, waste of opportunities and reduced public trust in the government, the present study aims to identify the causes of this phenomenon and determine the importance of each of these factors. In the qualitative part, through interviews with 20 government managers of Golestan province, using targeted sampling at the basic, intermediate and higher levels, key factors were identified and using the content analysis method and Maxqda software, the data set was organized in 27 criteria and in 3 categories. In order to ensure the accuracy of the coding, the result of the content analysis was sent to some participants and corrective comments were applied. In the quantitative phase, in order to rank the factors, hierarchical analysis method and pairwise comparison questionnaire with the participation of 45 people were used. The data obtained from the questionnaires were analyzed by Expert choice software. Findings indicate that factors related to the decision-making process (0.473), organizational factors (0.355) and factors related to the decision-makers (0.173), respectively, play the most important role in making ineffective decisions from the perspective of participants. Based on the research findings, it can be said that due to the fact that changing the personal characteristics of managers is very difficult and less important among the factors, government organizations can focus on improving the decision-making process and controlling organizational factors influencing decisions, significantly improve the quality of public sector decisions.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of managerial false confidence and information reliability and efficiency index in predicting the profit based on behavioral tax of companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange during the years 2009 to 2019. For this purpose, the present study is an applied research in terms of purpose and experimental research in terms of the type of research. The statistical population of the present study included all companies listed in the Tehran Stock Exchange Organization whose shares were exchanged in the main hall or the first market during the desired period. According to the Cochran Orkut formula, 385 companies were selected as a sample. In addition, data panel model was used to investigate the relationship between variables. The results showed that the manager's excessive self-confidence has a significant effect on companies' profits at the level of %95 and this effect is reversed. With the presence of information confidence in the relationship between manager's overconfidence and corporate profits, the negative impact of CEO's overconfidence on corporate profits decreases from -0/416 to -0/234, and this decrease is also at level %95 Is effective. Thus, the information reliability variable can reduce the negative impact of management overconfidence on corporate profits.
