The present research from the audience dimension is basic, from the goal perspective is exploratory and from the dimension is cross-sectional. Data collected through a researcher-made questionnaire. Formal and content validity of the questionnaire were checked and it was completed by 260 middle and senior managers of downstream Iranian oil industries. The data validation was analyzed using the ratio test technique, confirmatory factor analysis and structural-interpretive equations method. To design and review the public-private partnership model, we used structural-interpretive modeling (ISM) method and the partial least squares technique to attest the statistical model. The results show that the model has a good fit. Also, using the same tool, the factor load of each factor and the impact of each variable were determined.The purpose of this study is to review and fit the public-private partnership model in the downstream Iranian oil industry.

The statistical population of the present study consists of marketing and sales managers of active manufacturing companies located in Mashhad industrial town. According to the available resources, the number of this statistical population is 418 people and the sample size is 200 people based on Cochran's formula. For this purpose, by studying the literature and background of related research and interviewing experts, 62 variables were observed and 18 variables are hidden. In the present study, to confirm the model and answer the hypotheses of structural equation modeling by partial least squares (PLS) method with Use of Smart PLS software has been used. Shows the execution of the necessary calculations in the Smart Pay software. While confirming the relationships between latent variables in the structural model, the whole model is fitted at a strong level of 0.955, and the results showed innovation in knowledge management with a coefficient (13.61), innovation in entrepreneurship with a coefficient (161.54), innovation in the market With coefficient (2.39), entrepreneurship based on knowledge management with coefficient (6.67), and knowledge management based on market with coefficient (5.04), has a positive and significant relationship.The purpose of this study is to develop market-oriented capabilities with an emphasis on innovation and entrepreneurship; The role of knowledge management in manufacturing companies in Mashhad, this research is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of nature and method of implementation, descriptive-survey and correlational.

The voluntary not-payment of taxes is one of the concerns of Iran’s economic administration. Because, a large share of Iran’s budget revenue (especially in recent years) to come to gather in tax, this study is aimed at employing the principles of social marketing mix to identify the factors contributing to voluntary tax payment by taxpayers. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to examine the views of tax experts on how each of the social marketing mix can be effective in collecting taxpayers' taxes voluntarily. This conceptual mapping research is exploratory and basic from goal and audience dimensions respectively. The statistical population is the experts of the country's tax affairs organization who have been selected based on convenience sampling. The results show the prominent place of social marketing mix from the view of experts and prioritization of each element of social marketing mix in voluntary tax collection. Therefore, all eight elements of marketing mix (offer, participation cost, social communication, accessibility, publicity, participation, Policy-making and resource chain) fully maps the factors influencing voluntary tax collection, but, among them, the role of policy-making, participation, and publicity are more important.The social marketing that uses the principles of commercial marketing, could change the attitude and behavior of individuals in support of society’s welfare.

The aim of this study is to explain the role of government in increasing the national competitiveness of Iranian engineering companies in the global market. In this qualitative research, we interviewed fifteen experts from engineering companies and organizations connected to export of engineering services. The data collection tool was a semi-structured interview and experts selected in a non-random convenience sampling. Theme analysis and coding methods were used to analyze the data. The result of the research indicated that a comprehensive framework for government policies to increase the competitiveness of the country's engineering services has to be formulated. This framework requires the following initiatives: Reforming the existing mechanisms in financing; Establishment of engineering companies to be matched with the requirements of internationalization; transforming government support mechanisms, especially in foreign relations; restructuring the administration of engineering export services and changing attitudes towards the engineering export services and smoothing the presence of the private sector. And, most importantly, is the perception that in the current economic condition, the export of engineering services can act as a driving force of our economy. It has to be noted that this framework can be applied as a basis for drawing a model of competitiveness of engineering services exports in other service / industrial areas of our country.If in a definition of national competitiveness، we call it "the share of a country's products / services in the global market", we come to the fundamental question of why the share of Iranian engineering companies in the global market is small?

The aim of this study is to compare the performance of three countries; South Korea, Vietnam and Iran, in management of controlling coronavirus crisis. First, the issue of crisis, crisis management, health crises and coronavirus crisis are addressed. The performance of countries is compared based on the activities carried out by each country. Findings show that effective crisis management requires the application of decisive management in times of crisis, centralization of information collection and distribution, pre-crisis collaborative governance model, transparency, inter-organizational cooperation, cyberspace management and pre-crisis culture.Crises are an integral part of human life that occur unpredictably and cause many problems for Involved systems.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between perceived organizational justice and behavioral honesty of managers in Agricultural Bank branches. The research method is descriptive and correlational. The research sample includes 301 employees of Mazandaran Agricultural Bank branches who were randomly selected. We measured research variables through a survey and used regression to analyze the data. The reliability and validity of the research tool was confirmed by Cronbach’s alpha and the content validity. Findings showed that there is a direct and significant relationship between organizational justice and its dimensions with the behavioral honesty of managers. Also, the relationship between the dimensions of procedural justice and interactive justice with behavioral honesty was 25 and 56%, respectively. The relationship between the dimension of distributive justice and behavioral honesty was not confirmed. Therefore, due to the importance and high relationship between two dimensions of organizational justice and perceived behavioral honesty, managers could furnish an organizational climate to encourage their employees to take effective steps toward achieving organizational goals.Studies show that increasing the sense of justice, affects different aspects of organizational behavior.
