Today, the rapid growth of cities and massive migrations towards them has resulted in wide cultural diversity in urban environments, and this issue has made the local governments who are responsible for the management of cities face a serious problem, that is why the management a city in big cities will no longer be able to achieve success with the traditional and usual methods of the past in providing one-way services. For this reason, management science theorists believe that management theories and paradigms should be used to manage cities as best as possible, one of which is quantum management.The general purpose of the current research is to investigate the causal relationships between the variables of quantum management and the components of smart governance of urban culture, so the research is applied in terms of its purpose and descriptive in terms of the method of data collection. To achieve this goal, two methods of thematic analysis and fuzzy Delphi have been used.     The practical tool for data collection was a structured and semi-structured questionnaire, and data analysis using the fuzzy Delphi method showed that among the seven skills of quantum management, quantum feeling has the least effect, while quantum existence and quantum action have the highest effect. It has an impact on the smart governance of urban culture in the management of local governments.Research MethodologySince the purpose of the research is to investigate the role of quantum management in moving towards the smart governance of urban culture; therefore, the research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive in terms of gathering information of the survey type.      In the meantime, library and field methods have been used together to collect data. It is based on the field method of structured interviews and the selection of scientific and executive experts has been done using the snowball method. This method is especially used when it is difficult for the researcher to know the right people (Benis, 2004). Based on this, 16 experts were selected for interview. In this way, 9 university professors and 7 executive experts active in the field of culture and urban management were interviewed. The interviews continued until theoretical saturation was reached. In fact, no new material was recorded from the 13th interview onwards, but for more certainty, three more interviews were conducted to saturate the theory. From the point of view of data analysis, thematic analysis and fuzzy Delphi method have been used. In this way, the primary data was collected and organized using thematic analysis method, and in the next step, the data was evaluated using the fuzzy Delphi method. The fuzzy Delphi method was invented by Kaufman and Gupta in the 1980s (Cheng and Lin quoted by Jafari and Montazer, 2016). The application of this method in order to make decisions and reach consensus on issues where the goals and parameters are not clearly defined, leads to very valuable results. One of the biggest advantages of the fuzzy Delphi technique compared to the traditional Delphi technique for screening indicators is that one step can be used to summarize and screen the variables (Habibi et al., quoted by Rahdari and Nasr, 2016).ConclusionIn general, in this article, using thematic analysis and fuzzy Delphi method, and using the views of selected experts, the influence of quantum management indicators on the components of smart governance of urban culture was discussed, and finally, according to the results obtained from Among the 28 proposed indicators, 15 have had a great impact on the smart governance components of urban culture, which have received a de-fuzzified average tolerance threshold higher than 0.7, and they are:The effect of quantum operation on electronic democracyThe impact of quantum action on CI strategyThe effect of quantum presence on behavioral skillsThe effect of quantum presence on CI consciousnessThe effect of quantum existence on electronic democracyThe impact of quantum thinking on CI strategyThe effect of quantum view on the knowledge of cultural intelligenceEffect of quantum gaze on CI behavioral skillsThe effect of quantum trust on the knowledge of cultural intelligenceImpact of quantum trust on CI strategyImpact of quantum trust on public expenditure on ICT premisesand expansion of ICT and online public services and website accessThe effect of quantum thinking on the development of ICTThe effect of quantum cognition on CI consciousnessThe effect of quantum cognition on CI strategyThe effect of quantum cognition on the knowledge of cultural intelligence According to the findings, it has been concluded that among the seven quantum management skills of managers, the quantum feeling skill has less impact on the intelligent governance of urban culture in multicultural cities than the other 6 skills. This is despite the fact that quantum existence and quantum action had the highest impact on the intelligent governance of urban culture. Therefore, the growth and development of any city affected by the view of city managers with a quantum approach can lead to many developments in the field of smartening cities and moving towards smart governance of urban culture in local governments.

In general, smart cities rely on information and communication technology to improve urban life, and smart city concepts are known as efforts to improve urban performance and the desire to provide solutions for urban problems in order to provide a higher quality of human life. As we saw during the Covid-19 era, governments around the world have turned to mandatory urban quarantine to make social distancing more effective. In these conditions, limited physical movements and daily activities were done regularly through remote work, which can be seen as the importance of urban smartness. In this research, the realization of a smart city with electronic and virtual government infrastructures and the smartening of government services by applying the main components of smart dynamics, smart economy, smart environment, smart governance, and smart people during the outbreak of Covid-19 in Mashhad were discussed. This research, in terms of method, is apart from quantitative-qualitative research, in terms of purpose, it is apart from applied research, and in terms of nature, and it is descriptive and analytical. In order to create a base of existing primary factors about the factors affecting the smart city, the technique of environmental scanning and literature review have been used. To collect information, documentary and survey methods were used, which used the questionnaire method. The results showed that the components of smart people, smart governance, and smart economy had the highest correlation with the concept of a smart city. In fact, by improving the mentioned components, the concept of a smart city will be realized largely. In the end, it can be said that the most effective component is smart people, and according to the results obtained from the statistical tests of the spread of the Covid-19 disease in the city of Mashhad, it has increased the component of people, governance, and smart economy.

Governance is not a new concept and various theories and models have been proposed for a long time. This category has different types, and smart governance is one of the most important. Smart governance is an approach for citizen-oriented governments with capabilities such as human capital development, information and communication technology infrastructure, and active citizenship; it provides public participation, and technological, organizational and political innovation. The purpose of this research is to identify the components and indicators of smart governance in line with the effective participation and cooperation of citizens. This research is qualitative based on the nature of the data and the research method used in it is the focus group method. The data collection tools are semi-structured interviews that were collected from three focus groups with academic and executive participants related to the fields of governance, political science, public administration, and public participation. According to the findings of the research, 83 primary codes, 37 centralized codes, 17 systematic codes and 4 main categories were extracted, which are considered as the main components and indicators of smart governance in realizing the effective participation and cooperation of citizens. From the results of the present research, it is possible to point out the important features of smart governance, such as "futurism, innovativeness, and micro-centeredness" that governments can create the necessary background and platform for cooperation and participation of citizens by referring to such aspects.
