In order to successful environmental confrontation, managers should be equipped to required knowledge and skills and this will be reached through appropriate training. Not only successful organizations don’t look at organizational training as waste cost, but also focus on it so that promote their human resource capabilities and reach competitive advantage.  Effective training depends on appropriate training needs assessment. There are a lot of different methods used to assess training needs in organizations. The main origins of differences are first, diverse methods in gathering and analyzing data, and second the reference of assessing training needs in organizations. However, there is a consensus that an appropriate method for need assessment should has a theoretical and measurement accuracy, yet be free of dysfunctional complexity. For this reason, the presented study has introduced a mixed method of training self-assessment and Shannon entropy in training need assessment of managers conducted on 172 top and middle managers in 17 companies of Rafsanjan industrial estate. Training self-assessment and Shannon entropy were used to gather training needs and determine importance coefficients respectively. As a result, a pool of training need assessment of managers was explored on which needs were arranged based on priorities of importance coefficients.   Manuscript profile

In the last decade, the aviation industry in the world has been considered as one of the most important axes of development and growth of developed and developing countries and has a special place in the economic, social, cultural and technological development programs of developed and developing countries.This study was conducted to develop a model of airport human resource excellence (comparative approach). This research was applied in terms of purpose and in terms of qualitative approach and especially metacombination approach. In terms of research methodology, Sandlowski and Barroso seven-step method has been used and to achieve a comprehensive model of human resource excellence, seven steps must be taken and finally the model of airport human resource excellence (comparative approach) was identified.

Nowadays, technological and economic infrastructures are not the only competitive advantage of organizations. Having talented people can ensure the sustainable development and growth of organizations. The role of strategic talent management in government organizations in the development of employees' job skills is vital and essential, and without effective talent management in the organization, we will see a loss of organizational resources. Government agencies are generally at a very low level in terms of talent management due to the lack of a clear and competitive process. This is why designing a model that examines the factors affecting the talent management of employees is of great importance. In order to achieve this, this study has examined the talent management of employees in Iranian government organizations. The research method is qualitative and Delphi method. The present study, like any other research, is a library review of the relevant literature, and also the management of staff aptitude in order to classify and present the structure based on previous research. To review and answer the research question, an interview with a group of experts is conducted. They will be selected based on the method of judgmental sampling and snowball. The adequacy index of the number of interviews is the theoretical saturation based on which the researcher concludes that more interviews will not add more information to the current reserves of the interviews and finally the final qualitative model based on causal, strategic, intervening, contextual factors. And outcome were presented as final factors. Manuscript profile
