In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, digital technologies have revolutionized businesses, and no business is an exception to this rule. Despite the vital role of project-oriented organizations of Iran's oil and gas industry in the economy Iran, so far no comprehensive research has been conducted to conceptualize digital transformation in these organizations. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to design and verify the conceptual model of digital transformation for these organizations.The present study is an applied research with an exploratory approach in which a mixed research method has been used. In the qualitative stage, data collection was done through in-depth interviews, sampling by purposeful judgment method, grounded theory was used to analyze the data and fuzzy Delphi technique was used to validate the identified factors. In the quantitative stage, interpretive structural modeling technique was used to design the model, a researcher-made questionnaire was used to collect data, and structural equation modeling based on partial least squares was used to examine the factors relationships and validate the proposed model.Based on the research findings, the digital transformation model of Project-Based organizations in Iran's oil and gas industry, is a multifaceted systemic process with 53 Factors and 9 Dimensions including Internal Drivers, External Drivers, Industry and Governance Factors, strategic implications of digital transformation, Innovative Use of Digital Technology, Structural and Behavioral Change, Areas for Improvement, Interfering Factors, and consequences of digital transformation. the results of model validation show that the relationships between the components are significant.

This study aims to identify the specific perception of high-consumption audiences of national brands of dairy products labeled "traditional". Therefore, it analyzes and compares the message of the sender (package designer) and what the recipient (recipient of the goods) has received. To achieve the goal of the research, with the help of a semiotic approach, first by describing the work, visual signs, both visual and written, and determining the importance of each of them, the location and description of the types of symbols used in the work are discussed. After describing the work, by the method of "Martin Jolie" analysis, the messages in the work were examined in three sections: visual, iconic, and linguistic messages; Finally, with the help of "Roland Barthes" method in image analysis, explicit and implicit implications of the content of the work were identified. Analysis of research findings showed that three types of visual, linguistic, and iconic messages are of special importance in each package. In visual messages, the three elements of color, packaging material, texture, and packaging form the most important roles in conveying the "traditional" concept to a dairy product. In examining language messages, the choice of name, font, and written language is very important, and each can have implicit and conceptual implications; Finally, in the messages, explicit and implicit meanings in the images are examined and their importance is determined

Nowadays, since the employees have significant intellectual maturity, they seek to create interaction and organizational empathy between themselves and their superiors. This has resulted in more participation of employees in organizations. The purpose of this article was to design and explain managing up model in Gas Company of Isfahan province. The method of this research is developmental- applied in terms of purpose, and in terms of method, it is combination research (qualitative and quantitative). The field of research in the qualitative part included 29 managers of company that 14 of whom were selected by purposeful sampling, semi-structured interviews and by observing the saturation rule. The statistical population in the quantitative section included 881 managers and experts from 6 regions and the central headquarters of company, and 400 questionnaires were distributed by using the formula 5q<n<15q. To evaluate the suitability of the developed conceptual model, a researcher-made questionnaire was used, and to check the validity and reliability, the content validity index and ratio, and the retest method was used, and the reliability of the quantitative part was measured with Cronbach's alpha coefficients. In the findings section, the analysis of the interviews led to the extraction of 57 concepts, which were classified in the form of six main categories of the data basis theory. In the quantitative part, the designed model was tested by using SPSS, and Smart PLS. The results showed the validity of the model designed in the qualitative part and the acceptance of all research hypotheses.

In this study, the effect of high-level competence perception on the emergence of withdrawn behaviors and job search behaviors with the variable role of job dissatisfaction mediator and moderator of ambition has been investigated. This research is a correlational description in terms of quantitative research in terms of data collection method. The main tool for data collection is the standard questionnaire. The statistical population of employees working in Ilam Power Distribution Company is 493 people, the sample size was 216 people using Cochran's formula. Structural equation modeling and Smart PLS software were used to analyze the data. The results showed that the perception of high level of competence has a significant and positive effect on the emergence of withdrawn behaviors and job search behaviors. Job dissatisfaction has a significant and positive effect on the emergence of withdrawal behaviors. Perceptions of high-level competence through job dissatisfaction have an indirect and positive effect on the emergence of withdrawal behaviors and job search. Ultimately, ambition moderates, in other words, increases the relationship between perceptions of high-level competence and withdrawn behaviors and job search.

The purpose of this study was to diagnose the pattern of public education governance in Iran.

In this research, a mixed-methods research design has been used. In the qualitative stage, the content analysis strategy using Atlas TI software and theoretical sampling method were used. In the quantitative stage, a survey and correlation strategy was adopted and 384 people were considered as a sample using random sampling. To implement the model, confirmatory factor analysis method was used in LISREL software.

The results of research First, based on the content analysis of interviews with education experts the deficiencies of public education governance were identified. 4 comprehensive themes, 11 constructive themes and 46 basic themes were identified. The pervasive themes in the pathology of public education governance are: lack of accountability, infrastructural problems, lack of participation, and lack of flexibility. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to fit the network of identified themes. The results confirm all the identified factors.

In general Conclusion, it can be said that by improving the components of non-accountability, infrastructure problems, lack of participation and inflexibility, it is possible to provide the basis for good governance in public education in Iran. It seems that conducting this research leads to providing a comprehensive model of good educational governance that is appropriate to the social, cultural, political and economic conditions of the country.

The export of agricultural goods, especially nuts, plays a significant role in providing foreign exchange income from non-oil exports. Due to the inadequacy of the models presented in the existing theoretical foundations, this research was conducted with a developmentalist view of the non-oil economy with the aim of designing a model for nuts export tactics to Russia. This research follows the sequential mixed method. First by using the library method, nuts export tactics were extracted. Then in the qualitative part, the initial tactics were presented through interviews to 25 experts who were selected through the snowball sampling method, while confirming them, additional tactics were extracted. Data collection in the quantitative part was also done using a questionnaire which its reliability was confirmed by Cronbach alpha method and its validity was confirmed by content validity method. By asking 110 nuts exporters who were selected through judgmental sampling method, the final tactics were ranked using the TOPSIS method. The results showed that the best way to developing the nuts export to Russia is using of 30 tactics which have the following priority: Integration of small companies to achievement of reliable brand and production on an economic scale, Establishing the joint bank of Iran and Russia and opening branches in both countries to facilitate financial transfers, Controlling pollution and reducing the use of pollutants in export affairs and other tactics in the research model.
