There were different conditions by the time of Aboumoslem's riot and Abasian's movement.  Omavain government treats meagerly to serious and dangerous movement and ignores tribe prejudice and even selects the governors and major chairmen based on merit and in an exactly intensive process though not to the case of Abasian's movement. Using Ziad - Bin-Obeih (as a traditional challenger of Moavia's government) to control Kofa Sheas, appointing Hojjaj- Bin-Uesef to clear the reminded signs of Bin-Zobair's seven-years uprising, emphasizing on Mohallab Ezdi Yamani to defeat Khavarej's fearful riots, using Qhotaibe- Bin- Muslim's talent to develop their borders in Central Asia and also using some other Barbar military leader's capabilities to conquer Andolous are some strategic policies of  Omavain government that conclude to endurance of their governance and are intended based on politics and predictable decision making.  It is caused to have a long-time emperor in vast land from China to Spain.

        Today, meritocracy, as well as employing efficient work forces, is one of the main principles and success factors of organizations for moving towards dynamism and evolution. It, on the one hand, is the requirement and success key of reformations and a condition of survival and durability of political systems and, on the other hand, is one of the basic elements of empowerment of governments, knowledge promotion and management proficiency of every country. The present study, which aims to present a meritocracy system promotion model for govermental organizations of Iran, has been conducted by a descriptive-survey method using questionnaires and semi-structured interview among managers and staff of the Ministry of Health and Medical Education. After studying theoretical fundamentals and getting acquainted with meritocracy subject, we prepared an open questionnaire in order to recognize government organizations with regard to meritocracy system situation and to identify its effective factors. The results of the conducted theme analysis with the obtained answers led to the formation of the conceptual model. In the next step, the second questionnaire was designed in order to extract relations among the variables, determine weight coefficients of indexes, and present the research model. After confirming the validity and reliability of the questionnaire, it was distributed among 54 experts who were chosen under certain conditions and through a judgmental method. The results were analyzed based on decision making structure with multiple criteria and lexicographic model. The results indicated that in organizations with a competitive strategy, partnership leadership style, responsive organizational culture, organizational goal of human resource management system, and a semi-centralized decision making method, a more ideal background is provided for the promotion of meritocracy system. Also, organizations that involve participation in the formulation of values and norms, accept meritocracy in public opinion, consider competence as the main standard for the selection of people and dictate employment terms with an equal opportunity will provide a better background for the promotion of meritocracy system.

        The present study identified and prioritized the competency components for health and public health policy-making managers and experts. The present study was applied and of a descriptive survey type. The statistical population of the study included the managers of social security organizations in Gilan and Tehran. Among them, 79 people were selected as the sample by convenience random sampling. Data were analyzed in SPSS and PLS software. Among the many components identified in various theoretical studies, 31 components made up the competency of managers. The Cronbach's alpha coefficients of the variables were higher than 0.7, indicating the appropriate reliability of the research tool. All the AVE values of the constructs were greater than 0.5, indicating a good validity of the research tool. The analysis of means showed that the customer-oriented component in the social security organization of Gilan and the outcome-oriented component in the social security organization of Tehran were more desirable than other components. The prioritization of the components in the social security organization of Tehran revealed that the first priority belonged to communication, and in the social security organization of Gilan, the first priority belonged to the learning-oriented variable. In the current competitive situation and in an environment whose primary characteristics are continuous changes and innovations, successful organizations pay attention to the role of human resources in the organization and consider the competency of employees in the organization. Paying attention to competency helps the organization to increase the motivation and performance of the employees of the departments. Manuscript profile

        The current research aimed to analyze the obstacles to the realization of meritocracy facing the attraction of elites in the country's management levels and the ways out of it, relying on the statement of the second step of the revolution. The main question was to investigate the obstacles to the realization of meritocracy and the solutions for its realization under the attraction of elites in the managerial levels of the country. The method was analytical-descriptive and relied on library resources. The findings showed that the first obstacle is the weakening of meritocracy by overemphasizing on work history, and the solution is youthism and trusting the elite. The next challenge is the non-compliance of the selection criteria with the operational needs of the organization, the solution is to use talented human resources and also eliminate discrimination in the distribution of public resources. Non-granting of rewards based on organizational status is the third challenge, the solution is the realization of justice and narrowing the field of discrimination. The lack of attention to ethics and its promotion is the fourth challenge, and returning to the spirit of ethics caused by the revolution and holy defense was considered as the main solution. The last challenge is the lack of effect of performance evaluation results on the job conditions of employees, the solution is to give effect to the results of performance evaluation, to pay attention to the spiritual competence of people along with the conditions of performance evaluation and to record actual performance.
