The training of competencies required by strategic commanders in asymmetrical warfare has become one of the main concerns of the country's defense directors because the quality of equipping the commanders with the competencies will have a significant effect on the result of these wars. Accordingly, the present study aims to provide a model for the training of competent military commanders in asymmetrical warfare. This research, in the designing step of competency patterns, in terms of type of use, is applied and in terms of purpose, is simultaneous mixed research and in terms of purpose time horizon, is cross-sectional. In the designing step of the competency development and training model, in terms of the type of use, is applied and In terms of research purpose, is descriptive. In the first phase, a conceptual model was compiled by examining the literature of the research and interviewing 15 experts (using snowball sampling and content analysis) and validated through SmartPlus software. Then, in the second phase, the methods of training and development of competencies were extracted based on the research literature and prioritized based on the views of 12 experts in the form of the focal group. Finally, in addition to ranking the dimensions and components of the model in the first phase (insight, individual, organizational, and interpersonal, respectively), the development methods of each aspect of the model of the competency of military strategic commanders were presented in order of priority, and followed by practical proposals.

In recent decades, the importance and role of the sea in societies’ development programs has been explicitly and scientifically addressed to all the influential factors in achieving the strategic objectives of marine organizations. The main objective of this research is to identify the effective indicators on human resources management in Naval vessels, which, in the specific conditions governing the work environment in the sea, managers are associated with human resources. This research was applied in terms of the purpose and in order to achieve the ultimate goal of the exploratory blended research method - the phenomenological model-used in two independent qualitative and quantitative steps. In the qualitative stage, interviews were used for collecting data. Using a purposeful judging sampling method, the interviewees were selected from among experienced commanders and officers. The results of the interviews led to the identification of common components as effective indicators on human resource management in Naval vessels. Then, by Delphi questionnaire distribution among experts and elite the indicators have been confirmed and prioritized. In the quantitative phase, using the results of a researcher-made questionnaire (which is based on qualitative research findings) and its distribution among commanders and senior officers of Naval vessels, the challenges of this field were identified and explained that are: hard work, salary and benefits, psychological pressure, sailing time, high managerial responsibility, high risk-taking, difficulty in replacing skilled labor, combining work and personal life, and the need for continuous education and changing society conditions. What is certain, the results of this study could help commanders and officers of the ships and the chief executives of this field in the analysis of employee performance and human resource planning

It is important to determine the set of factors that lead to the emergence of successful trainers at all levels of an organization. Therefore, the main goal of this study is to identify and rank the personality indicators of the success of entrepreneurial trainers in the development of maritime service training centers. The statistical population of this study is all Hormozgan Maritime Services Training Centers. After studying the literature, 24 personality indicators were determined. Then, with the help of the views of professors, experts and specialists in the field of education and skills, 14 main indicators of the success of entrepreneur coaches were identified in the surveyed centers, and then, with the help of expert opinions, the interactions of each of the indicators were determined on each other and using the Dimithel method, the indicators were divided into two effective and effective groups and the most effective and most effected indicators were identified in the success of the entrepreneur instructors in the field of training and servicing of marine services. In addition, by using the Analysis of Network Process (ANP) method, the weights associated with each of these indicators were determined, and eventually the final ranking of the indices was made using the WIKER method. The final ranking results indicate that the factor of the result of the ranking of the virock is very close to V = 0.05 and V = 1, and in the ANP weighing the first to fourth rankings are also ranked in the wikker; and more importantly, in the quaternary technique, all four indicators In the cause group. These indicators are, in turn, the ability to set up a business, work and actors, innovation, creativity, ideas, and the ability to turn the failure into opportunity

The development of cooperation between the university and industry in advanced countries, shows the close relationship between the two institutions. There are various levels of interactions between industry and academics in research collaboration and research services. Innovation and, consequently, open innovation can be seen as a shared goal and concern for effective collaboration between the university and the industry. Open innovation includes communication, increased engagement and collaboration of external role players such as users, customers, suppliers, universities and even competitors to exchange innovative ideas. The research method was of descriptive-correlation and the statistical population was the faculty members of governmental Universities of Mazandaran province in 1396. According to the Morgan table, 270 people are the statistical sample of this study. The data collection tools were Parkman and Walsh standard questionnaires. Data analysis was performed using descriptive and inferential statistics at a significant level of P ≤ 0.05. The results of the hypothesis testing were performed by SMART-PLS software. The results of path analysis of the research pattern showed that open innovation has an impact on the university-industry cooperation, so that research collaboration on the cooperation of the university and industry has a positive and significant impact and the relationship between them is moderate. And other variables, such as research services, human resource transfer, academic entrepreneurship, intellectual property commercialization, informal interaction and scientific publications, have a positive and significant impact on the cooperation of the university and industry, but this relationship is weak in the statistical society. According to this study, it is suggested that authorities and policymakers consider the relevant variables in the cooperation of the university and industry and consider them in their policies in order to see more interaction and cooperation between the university and the industry
