Moreover, results indicate that brand performance has a mediating role in the relationship between brand ambidexterity and brand commitment, and reputation has a mediating role in the relationship between brand performance and brand commitment.

By providing performance indicators, this method makes it possible for managers to accurately measure the progress of a project and to calculate the time and cost required to complete it. Nevertheless, the accepted rate of progress indexes of a project is not specified in this method, which brings about ambiguity. Intending to improve earned duration management performance, statistical quality control charts were used, which had previously been applied in Earned Value Management to determine the acceptable cut-off points of indexes of project management. Using Monte Carlo simulation, these charts were calculated at the time of project planning, but not during project implementation. Such calculations give project managers prospective view; in addition, they provide a basis for evaluating and comparing the performance of projects during their progress.","PeriodicalId":260407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management and Development Process","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133541415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data collection tool was a questionnaire and the analytical unit and the statistical population of the study were all public-private partnership projects in Tehran. The collected data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis and multivariate regression. Results show that five categories of factors affect the success of a public-private partnership, which include: optimal management, trust building, information and knowledge use, attention to the interests of the people and financing. Based on the findings, the optimal management factor has the greatest impact and financing factor has the least impact on the success of the public-private partnership. Also, the rate of success for the public-private partnership is lower than the theoretical average. According to the findings, in order for public-private partnership to succeed in Iran, it is necessary to pay special attention to these five key factors.","PeriodicalId":260407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management and Development Process","volume":"141 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122660856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After 36 companies from Iran Mining and Mineral Industries Development and Renovation Organization (IMIDRO) were reviewed, results showed that the elements of an organizational entrepreneurship strategy included entrepreneurial strategic vision, organizational architecture supporting entrepreneurial strategy and entrepreneurial tendency and behavior. Then, a conceptual research model was developed and applied in the same companies. To investigate the relationships among variables of the research, linear regression was used and to analyze the data, PLS software was applied due to the low volume of the sample available. Findings show that entrepreneurial strategic viewpoint, entrepreneurial sponsorship architecture, and entrepreneurial tendency and behavior respectively affect individual outcomes of entrepreneurship strategy, organizational outcomes of entrepreneurship strategy, and individual and organizational outcomes of entrepreneurship strategy. It is also known that in the structure of these companies, strategies are not integrated with the concept of enterprise entrepreneurship, nor is there entrepreneurial culture in them. Therefore, it has been suggested that managers at all levels together with specialists of the companies decisively attempt to institutionalize entrepreneurship and create entrepreneurial culture. Also, it has been suggested that cases of individual outcomes of the entrepreneurial strategy such as materializing employees’ tacit talents and potentials be taken into consideration so that they can cope with the risks arising from entrepreneurial activities.","PeriodicalId":260407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Management and Development Process","volume":"290 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124180021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
