For this purpose, depth interview was conducted with 10 managers, deputies, and human resources talents of National Iranian Gas Company and 6 faculty members. To analyze data from the interviews, interpretative analysis was used. The validity of research findings was confirmed by examining members (interviewees). In order to calculate reliability or compatibility of conducted encodings, test-retest reliability method was used. The results of analysis indicated that the prerequisites of the development of human resources talents at National Iranian Gas Company is at two levels including development of structural and organizational factors and the development of occupational factors. Prerequisites of the development of human resources talents mean the organization should focus on what factors to provide infrastructure for the development of human talent.

A factor that can be effective in improving job performance is having a healthy organization with an empowered subset. The purpose of present study is Investigating the effect of organizational health on employee job performance with explaining the mediating role of empowerment. In addition, the theoretical literature and testing the hypotheses of the study have also been reviewed. In the frame of a survey, to select sample from the population including the entire staffs of executive entities of Sirjan city, 274 people were selected as the sample by random stratified method. After questionnaire distribution, for data analyzing was applied in two descriptive and inferential statistics levels. The construct validity was confirmed by factor analysis. Reliability of the instrument was calculated as 0.897 using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. In order to analyze data, statistical tests Parametric tests of t, correlation coefficient and structural equation model were applied by using the software LISREL. The results indicate the presence of a significant relation between organizational health and job performance, between organizational health and staffs empowering, as well as between empowering staffs and job performance of staffs.

Continuous organizational changes in today’s dynamic and changing environment requires the presence of insightful, strategic, or in more clear terms, transformational leaders. Given increasing attention paid to the function of leadership in creating organizational changes in the world and its role in developing organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). The present study attempted to explore the mutual relationship between transformational leadership and OCB with a focus on mediatory role of two variables of emotional trust and cognitive trust. This study is an applied research in terms of objectives it follows and a descriptive-survey research with regard the research methodology. The population under study included staff working in different branches of Mehr Eghtesad Bank in Shiraz. The sample size includes 150 respondents which were determined using Cochrane Formula. The data were collected through four questionnaires: Transformational Leadership Questionnaire, OCB Inventory, emotional Trust Questionnaire, and Cognitive Trust Questionnaire. Data were analyzed by LISREL Software. Findings show that there is no significant relationship between transformational leadership style and OCB among the respondents. However, adding emotional trust and cognitive trust to the model show that there is a positive relationship between transformational leadership style and these two variables. In addition, a positive significant correlation was also found between emotional and cognitive trust and OCB

The present research is to provide an explaining model for employee inefficient behaviors based on Managers abusive supervision. This study is practical in terms of purpose and data collection method is descriptive-correlational. The statistical population consists managers and employees of Ilam public organizations, about 5000 people among whom 360 individuals were selected randomly as a sample by using Krejcie and Morgan's table (1995). The data collection tool was a standard questionnaire of which their reliability is measured through Cronbach’s alpha as well as their validity by constructive validity. The data was processed using SPSS software and visual-pls in order to determine the validity of the hypotheses and the significance level of the relationships between the variables. The findings of this research show that the Managers abusive supervision has a significant effect on inefficient job behaviors. The findings of this study show that perceived Abusive supervision has a positive and meaningful effect on the two variables of neurotic behavior and emotional exhaustion of which its effect’s coefficient on neurotic behavior(β = 0.55) is more than emotional exhaustion(β = 0.35). Also there is a negative and inverse influence on perceived Abusive supervision of employees' Prosocial reaction (β =-0.390). Neurotic behavior has a positive and significant effect on the two variables of organizational obstruction and ineffective Counterproductive work behavior of which its effect’s coefficient on organizational obstruction(β = 517) is more than inefficient Counterproductive work behavior(β = 0.367). The effect of neurotic behavior on Prosocial reaction(β = 0.077) has been statistically excluded and has no significant effect. Findings show that emotional exhaustion has a positive and significant effect on organizational obstruction as well as the inefficient Counterproductive work behavior variables, which has a significant effect on organizational obstruction(β = 0.398) than ineffective occupation behaviors(β = 0.221). The emotional exhaustion has a negative and inverse effect on Prosocial reaction(β= -0.285). Organizational obstruction has a positive and significant effect on inefficient job behaviors (β= 0.214). Also Prosocial reaction has a negative and significant effect on organizational obstruction(β = -0.653).

The aim of present research is to study the impact of organizational pessimism and on self-wanted isolation of employees. Research population consists of employees of four and five – star hotels in Tehran, among which 275 individuals were selected through convenience sampling. Data collection instrument was a standard questionnaire. For validity purpose, face validity and for reliability purpose Cronbach alfa coefficient were applied. This study is an applied research in terms of objective and a descriptive-correlational research in terms of data collection methodology. Structural equation modeling and LISREL software were used to examine the model under study. The results indicate that OP have a significant positive impact on SWI and organizational pessimism has a significant positive impact on workplace withdrawal.

The purpose of this research is to propose a competency-Compensation Assessment System Through Succession Planning. Having reviewed the research literature as well as experts' opinions, the primary model was proposed and then, the final research model was presented using the experts' opinions. The study was carried out via mixed methods research. The statistical population included the experts and academic specialists in the field of human resources and senior managers of Bank Saderat Iran in the qualitative section and experts and managers at various levels of Bank Saderat in the quantitative section. Non-judgmental purposive sampling and random stratified sampling were employed in the qualitative and quantitative sections respectively. In the qualitative section, 17 persons participated in the interview and in the quantitative section, 400 persons participated as the research sample. Tools of data collection were interview and researcher self-made questionnaire. Reliability of the questionnaire was calculated equal to 0.93 and its validity was approved. The results of the survey in the qualitative section illustrate that there are 25 components for competency-oriented compensation system in five dimensions including competency, foresight, flexibility, justice, and comprehensiveness. In the quantitative section, the findings showed that competency has the highest effect on employees' competency-oriented compensation. Likewise, among the secondary components in the subset of competency dimension, "absorption, retaining and development of organization's talents" has the highest effect on employees' competency-oriented compensation system. T-statistic of this component is equal to 11.82 and its path coefficient is equal to 0.8.
