Entrepreneurship is a general term that is used to both organizations and
individuals. Therefore, we cannot imagine an entrepreneur organization that its
people do not accurately understand about their ability and creativity.
Entrepreneurship acts as a driving force towards people and firms development.
We cannot expect an organization’s development without consideration of its
people. SMEs want that profitable companies should use all of their capacities
and it is easy with entrepreneurship. This paper focuses on the main factors as
management, organizational structure, strategic components, financial and
budgeting systems, evaluation of performance and cultural aspects in SMEs and
surveying of their roles on entrepreneurship filed in companies. The data
required were collected through questionnaires that offered to the employees and
managers of 25 companies in Kurdistan province. The research method was
casual comparative. Findings of the paper showed that entrepreneur firms
mangerial skills have a meaningful difference to those of non entrepreneur
mangers. This result is true for the financial and budgeting systems and
evaluation of performance and cultural characteristics in the studied groups.
There was no significant difference in the structural variables (concentration and
formality) and the strategic aspects (goal setting and policy making) in the two
firms. The results also showed that entrepreneur organizations are more complex
than others. Consequently, the innovators of small and medium enterprises have
a good mission statement in comparison to non entrepreneur firms.

This study attempts to investigate and analyze the impact of organizational
culture and degree of fit between university faculties on behavioral outcomes
in our case study. The basic question is that how much organizational culture
and degree of fit (mis) between university faculties and university could
influence the organizational citizenship behavior and their intention to remain
in university. This study uses the survey research method to answer the basic
question. The research population includes 393 individuals consisting of all of
the full time university faculties in Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman
(1385). Further, based on the pilot study and using stratified sampling method,
205 individuals were selected as sample. The results confirmed the impact of
person-organization fit on organizational behavior of university faculties.
Furthermore, no significant relationship between the values fit and intention to
remain, goals fit and intention to remain, and work environment fit and
organizational behavior (organizational citizenship behavior and intention to
remain), was found with 95% confidence level. Finally, the relationship
between the type of organizational culture and person-organization fit was
statistically significant.

The main aim of this work was to investigate the role of the three parameters of organizational culture, budgetary participation, management accounting systems in the improvement of managers’ performance, and also to explain their effects on each other. The results showed that there is a relation between budgetary participation, management accounting systems and managers performance. They also confirmed the detrimental effect of organizational culture on this relationship. It was concluded that in high power-distance and collectivist organizations or societies, budgetary participation will not lead to the improvement of managers' performance, even if sufficient management accounting information is at hand. But there is a positive relationship between the managers' performance and management accounting systems in low-power and individualist organizations and societies.

Today, firms depend on technology transfer to establish competitive advantage in the global market place. Since the failure rates in TT projects are surprisingly high, special attention should be given to the identification of factors leading to ineffectiveness of TT projects and factors facilitating TT effectiveness. One of the most important factors affecting TT success is the organization’s competence in dealing with the newly transferred technologies. Every organization must somehow modify its structure, resources and culture to adapt the new technologies. In this paper, we first identified all the significant indicators representing organizational competence and TT effectiveness in Iranian firms. Then we measured the effect of each of organizational competence indicators on TT effectiveness in Iranian electrical manufacturing firms.

At the present time that our country is passing through a critical period, the role of the administrative, industrial and educational organizations is inevitable in the economic operation and development of the country. But the fact whether all of them have been successful in making an effort to obtain the given aims is really questionable, because some of them seem to have performed a lot better than the others. Viewing the success of some of these organizations, we can find out about some common and key factors which have played important roles in their efficient performance.
An important factor is the existing powerful and overruling culture in which these organizations operate. Certainly, getting to know such factors and supporting them would be a useful step in leading these organizations to achieve their ideal goals successfully.
In this Article, first a theoretical analysis of culture and organizational culture is presented, then labor productivity and finally the existing theories concerning the relationship between organizational culture and labor productivity are explained. Also, in this investigation, using variance test analysis, the rank of Management Colleges of such academic institutions like Higher Education Confederate of Ghom, Tehran University, Allameh - Tabatabaei University and Shahid Beheshti University have been determined on the basis of the impact of organizational culture on the rate of productivity. By applying the correlation coefficient of Spearman, the relation of organizational culture with productivity of colleges has been analyzed with regard to the criteria explained for productivity. Finally, using Friedman’s test the criteria and characteristics of organizational culture have been ranked.
