Organizational learning is a capability of organizations to create, transfer and act on the knowledge generation. Exploration- and exploitation-oriented learning activities required to produce organizational ambidextrous learning. This paper presents a scale developed to classify organizations through cluster analysis as being Exploiters, explores, ambidextrous or with no defined orientation. The theoretical framework helps identify that the concepts associated with exploration and exploitation may be classified into six practical dimensions: organizational knowledge practices, innovative practices, competition, strategic orientation, organizational efficiency and partnerships. Indicators and criteria after sorting the dimensions of 36 features were identified and classified. Specialists were offered indicators derived from the theoretical review to identify final criteria by using Delphi technique. In the end, 6 indexes were deleted and 8 added to the index, therefore developing organizational learning model Ambidexterity was presented

In the past, most of the companies in service industry were using consumer-based approach in branding. This approach is mainly based on advertising to build powerful brand and underestimate the role of employees in branding. Lately, a new approach was developed in which employees play an important role in branding. This approach is mainly shaped by internal brand management (IBM), employees’ commitment to the brand (BC) and brand citizenship behavior (BCB). The aim of this study is to investigate the factors which affect on formation of brand citizenship behavior. This approach has attracted less attention in Persian literature. This is an applied research in term of goal, and also descriptivecorrelative approach in data collection. Statistical population includedall employees of ASIA insurance company in Tehran that 154 selected through Convenience sampling method. To test the hypotheses, structural equation model through Lisrel 8.8 were used. Our results show the relationship between IBM and BCB, job satisfaction and BCB, IBM an employees’ brand trust. But in contrast to the previous researches, there is no relationship between IBM and BC, and BC with BCB neither. Finally, recommendations are presented to managers.

At the present time, organizations are increasingly faced with dynamic and changing environments. In these turbulent conditions, firms need to be flexible, adaptive, entrepreneurial and innovative. There are numerous preconditions for an innovation organization that transformational leadership and knowledge sharing play the most important and key role. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between transformational leadership and organizational innovation with mediating role of knowledge sharing. This is a descriptive correlational study with purpose from the applied research. The sample size was 160 senior managers of engineering companies on field of robotic in Tehran that were selected by random method. The instruments used in this study were standard knowledge sharing questionnaire, the combined questionnaire of transformational leadership combined (Nasehifar et al, 2013; Bass, 1985; Timothy et al, 1999) and combined questionnaire of organizational innovation (Jimenez-Jimenez et al, 2008; Panayides, 2006; Prajogo & Sohal, 2006; Mirkamali & Choopani, 2011). Reliability of the questionnaire was reported by using Cronbach's alpha as 0/89, 0/93and 0/93, respectively. Test validity, with construct validity using was confirmed. Results of Pearson Correlation showed that all of transformational leadership, organizational innovation and Knowledge sharing components are mutually correlated with each other (p < 0/01). Implementing structural equation modeling with Partial Least Squares (PLS-SEM) for relationship between transformational leadership and organizational innovation through mediator variable knowledge sharing tests, we found that the proposed model has a good fit and organizational innovation is well explained by transformational leadership and knowledge sharing. Also all of the model path coefficients were significant
