Decision makers and persons, in charge of ascertaining economic activities of each sector, who hold top position for marking for policies need to employ fully effective methods in order to make decision about priority cases of different sectors in comparison with each other as well as being able to allocate resources in a more proper way. These effective methods should be, processed and analyzed without taking too long or incurring high costs. The input-output model in economics is one of the tools being employed for economic planning and analysis of inter – industries relations . This model is prepared and updated with prevailing methods, such as RAS and its adjusted version. One has to dedicate long time work (months) and allocate high costs (billion of Rials), as well as a need for availability of precise data and statistic of the existing conditions (activities) at the State’s different economic sectors. It should be noted that this process usually is employed in less developed countries like Iran, within long intervals. This article intends to estimate technological coefficients of the input-output table in Iran for the first time by improvising a new method with the help of an improved analytic hierarchy process and group decision making (GDM). This particular method may well show itself to be quite effective when no clear cut statistic data of the activities of the State’s economy are available, also when we are facing time limit, resources inadequacy stringency while it is simultaneously felt that we must make use of technological coefficients in planning. Ten, estimated technological coefficients for the particular period has been worked out by employing RAS customary method, compared with estimated coefficients suggested by this piece of research work (As a modern model and incurring high time and costs of the prevailing methods) through making use of non-parametric statistical tests. The comparison has proved that the obtained results clearly shoe no meaningful difference between these two compared coefficients. Thus, the obtained results are very promising and it is hoped that they may come handy whenever the relevant experts have in mind to use an effective method.

Organizational learning and learning organization concepts in recent management text s, are used synonymously and sometimes supplementary. Deep and continuous transformations in the primary years of the third millennium have impressed the organizations so much that they have to evolve and become adapt to learning in order be able to respond to the various pressures they face. They must learn to understand, guide, influence and manage the transformations. In this article the paradigm change models and their impact on organizations are explained and the importance of organizational learning, especially for our countrys managers, analysed. The difference between learning organizations and organizational learning is discussed at the continuance. Organizational learning concentrates on collection and analysis of the processes involved in individual and collective learning inside organizations, whereas the learning organizations literature has an action oriention and is geared toward using specific diagnostic and methodological tools which identify, promote and evaluate the quality of learning processes inside organizations. We argue that organizational learning is the activity and the process by which organizations eventually reach the ideal of learning organizations

Financial Markets will offer facilities to investors and helps to receive the growth path that we need. Tehran Stock Exchange (T.S.E) market was developed in recent years to help investors and give rise to resources for this purpose. Stock market most obtain stockholders satisfaction to guarantee fortune it depends stocks rate of return. Clear information will help stock holders receive this aim. This paper evaluates how expected Earning Per Share (E.P.S) benefits stockholders with applying T.S.E data during 1379-1379.

Whereas in our county (Iran), software engineering activities and production of mechanized information systems are increasingly continuing as per requirements of the organizations, quality has got an important role in this regard. In this research, it has been elaborated on surveying the matter of quality in computerized information systems and finding a quality discipline in producing these systems. In this research, we have evaluated the quality on the basis of the model of Dr. Bavur with two general groups of indexes, that is, technical and topical indexes and each group of indexes has been divided in to effective factors and totally the main part of effective factors on quality of software products was identified. In order to recognize & identify the quality discipline, the identified factors were surveyed in two statistical populations of the research, that is, producers and consumers of software products, through questionnaire and after analysis of the answers we concluded that viewpoints of producers & consumers regarding indexes of software products quality were in the same direction and there was no indifference which meant that there was a discipline, based on quality in producing applied software and mechanized information systems, and what was important from producer’s point of view, was also regarded as being important from consumer’s point of view. In view of this result, the research indicates that both producer & consumer have same viewpoints regarding products quality and qualitative needs of consumer was somehow identified by producer. It is required to set the national standards of software engineering and to implement the international quality standard which were emphasized on in this research when offering proposals. It is noted that general pattern of this research (methodology) my be used in finding quality factors and in general, quality discipline in other products.

This article is going to survey the relationship between culture and efficiency in Insurance Companies including Asia, Iran, Alborz and Dana as well as their branches. In order to measure the efficiency, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) has been used. In a way that the amount of efficiency in respect to input and output of branches has been computed, then by using the amounts, the weighted average of the efficiency in the companies level has been obtained. Questionnaire was used for measuring of organizational culture. After calculating the average and variance of the organizational culture variables for each branch, weighted average and variance at company level were obtained. In order to analyse the data, result of correlation coefficients between average and variance of organizational culture variables and efficiency branches and also Companies, study of stepwise regression at the level of branches and the comparison of normalized quantities of these variables at companies level were used. The result show that the difference in efficiency of Insurance companies can be explained only by one indicator’s of adaptability; that is, the level of red tape. The article will be ended with suggestions for the future researches, and the implications for Insurance Companies will be provided.
