The issue of career path development is important for employees in many organizations such as social security, according to the knowledge management pattern, so this study was conducted to design a career development model based on the knowledge management pattern in Mazandaran Social Security Organization. The statistical population studied in this study consisted of all employees of the Social Security Organization of Mazandaran Province. Statistical sample size of 269 people was selected through random sampling method by Krejcie Morgan table. In this research, Shine career development path and Hemmati knowledge management questionnaire were used. The reliability of these two questionnaires using Cronbach's alpha was 0.75 and 0.78, respectively. For statistical analysis, SPSS software version 20 and pls3 were used and the alpha level was considered 0.05. The results showed that the value of t in all paths among the research factors are equal to and greater than 2.58. As a result, there is a significant relationship between the main factors and their sub-factors in the conceptual-analytical model of the research and also the results show that the fit of the general research model is appropriate and strong. In general, there is a direct and significant relationship between the first step of the career path with the second step of the career path, between the second step of the career path with the third step of the career path and between the third step of the career path with the fourth step of the career path of employees, in the conceptual-analytical model of the career path.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of organizational forgetting on the knowledge management establishment. This research has survey-analytical method and is applied in terms of objective. The statistical population consists of 526 librarians and library directors at non-medical universities of Tehran and then 169 subjects are selected based on random sampling and Morgan table and studied by the questionnaire. Pearson correlation coefficient is utilized for data analysis and then the construct validity of research variables and its derived indices are investigated by confirmatory factor analysis test. . The results suggest that organizational forgetting (deliberately) to create, store, share and apply knowledge and forgetfulness unintended positive effect of these factors has a negative effect. In conclusion, based on test results made recommendations regarding the use of incentive mechanisms and reform of business processes and management of libraries provided by librarians who use them will result library to the knowledge of more.

Successful accomplishing of HR tasks and responsibilities in organizations depends on different factors such as their knowledge, abilities, skills and competencies. Some of management theorists belibe that competitive advantages in future will be shown in form of organization's abilities to managing information and knowledge. In this way, Competency Management (CM) is an important issue in the scope of knowledge management and knowledge management, also, is subordination of Human Resources Management (HRM). In this paper, we try to review the concept of competency- standard, competency profile, competency life cycle and etc, and to state the stages of the process of designing a competency model. Also, by emphasizing on the important tole of competency- based management in HRM, some advantages of using subsystems of HRM that are based upon competency have explained, and finally, some recommendations have offered for human resources managemers in organizations in our country.

Faced with the heavy burden of dealing with a large number of items, companies must classify the items in inventory and develop effective inventory control policies for these classes. Inventory classification using ABC analysis is one of the most widely employed techniques in organizations. The purpose of ABC classification is highlights the need for further study on effective factors in knowledge management processes. In the present age of ideas with the specification of uncertainty, knowledge management counts for an effective tool in the application of human capital and accountability to strategic uncertainties. In this direction, effective knowledge management initiatives need a culture that values sharing knowledge among individuals as well as the creation and application of it. On the other hand, much of the literature emphasizes the fundamental role of managers and leaders in shaping an appropriate culture that facilitates knowledge management processes. Hence, in this article, the value perspective (Denison and Quinn) and the behavioral perspective of organizational culture, and transformational, transactional and laissez- faire leadership styles also their role in developing four key knowledge management activities ( creation, storage, transfer and application) will be analyzed. As part of this analysis, a set of hypothesizes will be provided in order to explain the organizational culture fostering each of knowledge management processes also the compatible leadership style for developing and shaping the underlying culture. Finally the article concludes by considering fruitful areas for further research.
