The purpose of the present study was the pathology of outsourcing challenges of civil registration service in Bushehr Province. It is positivist in terms of paradigm, applied in terms of purpose, and descriptive survey in terms of type. The statistical population consisted of experts from the General Directorate of Status Registration of Bushehr province. This research was performed in two stages and in a mixed manner. Firstly, outsourcing challenges were extracted by analyzing scientific sources. Afterward, by forming a focus group and consulting the experts of the Civil Registration Organization, the ultimate indicators were prioritized through the Fuzzy method. Secondly, the extracted components and indicators were examined and ranked using the hierarchical technique. The research tool in both stages was a researcher-made questionnaire whose validity was confirmed by professors and experts in this field, and its reliability was evaluated and confirmed using the incompatibility rate (0.025). Findings in the first stage revealed that 19 out of 31 indicators are of higher weight for entering the second stage of the study. These indicators were divided into four general components: risk of duty, employees’ demotivation, devaluation of the organization, and diminishing control. Results demonstrated that diminishing control with a 0.367 score, duty with a 0.237 score, devaluation of organization with a 0.204 score, and demotivation with a 0.191 score were in the first to fourth places.

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 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.

Today, human resources need training more than ever. The research aims to provide a model for training human resources in the Isfahan Municipal Waste Management Organization. The research method is applied-exploratory based on the Grounded theory, and the data collection tool was a semi-structured interview. The statistical sample consisted of 15 human resource managers and management experts selected by purposive sampling. The foundation data theory strategy was used with the help of MAXQDA 22 software to analyze the qualitative data. Seventeen sub-codes were extracted from the answers of the experts. The results showed that knowledge management and information literacy would be formed as a central phenomenon from causal conditions such as effectiveness and intra-organizational stimuli. The action of human resource training management will have consequences, including employee growth, management efficiency, and competitiveness. However, in this model, background factors such as potential talents, work ethics, and intervening conditions will affect the learning levels and reactions to changing relationships.

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of good governance on reducing employees’ organizational indifference by emphasizing the mediating role of their sense of organizational belonging. It is quantitative research in terms of method, applied in terms of purpose, and descriptive in terms of nature. The statistical population was the staff of Imam Reza Hospital in Tabriz, whose number was 1,500 people. The sample size was estimated at 306 people using the Cochran relation selected by simple random sampling. The data collection tool was a standard questionnaire, and after measuring its validity and reliability, it was provided to the statistical sample. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods were used to analyze data. Thus, the descriptive statistics method was used to classify, summarize, and describe statistical data. At the inferential level, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Pearson r, regression tests, and confirmatory factor analysis were used to test the research hypotheses. The findings confirmed the research model and hypotheses, the negative and significant impact of good governance on the employees’ organizational indifference, and its positive impact on the sense of organizational belonging. The results also showed that the sense of organizational belonging has a mediating role in the effect of good governance on reducing employees’ organizational indifference.

In the world of competition, manpower can be the most important advantage of an organization and the main factor in developing and increasing performance in the collection. Organizations are just trying to create the best facilities for maximum performance and effectiveness. In some organizations, despite the efforts of the organization to provide the necessary facilities for employees, not only the performance does not increase; On the contrary, the phenomenon called organizational climate inversion is spreading in organizations. This study tries to identify the factors affecting the inversion of the organizational climate. The present study is descriptive in terms of developmental purpose and survey method in terms of method of data collection; It has used fuzzy Delphi and Exell software to analyze and achieve its goals. The difference of less than 0.2 between the definitive mean of stages 1 and 2 and the high degree of consensus of experts on the effective factors confirm the validity of the factors being measured. Given that this research has been done to develop a new theory, we have tried to use fuzzy Delphi, experts' opinion to reduce ambiguity about components and factors and increase the validity of selected factors. The results show that 19 factors affect the inversion of the organizational climate. Based on the results, increase in the of the organization's hardware factors has been identified as the most important factors affecting the inversion of the organization's climate. It is recommended that facilities be calculated and assigned to specific individuals to prevent organizational inversion.
