Purpose: Talent management plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality of education and learning, especially within education organizations. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the relationship between the categories of talent management implementation in the education organization. Methodology: This research was applied in its objective and descriptive-correlational in its execution. The study population consisted of managers and employees of the Basra province education organization, from which 385 individuals were selected as the sample using Cochran's formula and a convenience sampling method. The research tool was a researcher-made questionnaire on talent management implementation in the education organization, comprising 63 questions. The data obtained from its administration were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis and partial least squares regression in SPSS and Smart PLS software. Findings: The findings indicated that the implementation of talent management in the education organization comprised six categories: causal conditions (with two components), contextual conditions (with three components), intervening conditions (with three components), the central phenomenon (with one component), strategies (with two components), and outcomes (with one component). The factor loading of all components was above 0.50 and significant, the content validity ratio above 0.70, and the Cronbach's alpha and composite reliability above 0.80. Moreover, the correlation coefficients of causal conditions, contextual conditions, intervening conditions, the central phenomenon, strategies, and outcomes were less than 0.45, indicating their distinctiveness. Additionally, considering the indices of communality and redundancy, the talent management implementation model in the education organization fitted well, and the effect of causal, contextual, and intervening conditions on the central phenomenon, the effect of the central phenomenon on strategies, and the effect of strategies on outcomes were significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The designed model of talent management implementation in the education organization can assist managers, officials, and education planners in designing programs suitable for implementing talent management within the education organization.

Purpose: Obstacles of creating learning organization cause a sharp decline in the performance of organizations, especially in educational organizations. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the categories of the obstacle model of creating learning organizations. Methodology: This study in terms of purpose was applied and in terms of implementation method was descriptive from type of correlation. The research population were professors from Al-Qadisiyah and Kufa universities of Iraq with number 720 people and with using Cochran's formula, the sample size was estimated to be 251 people, which this number were selected by available sampling method. The research tool was a researcher-made questionnaire of barriers to obstacle of creating learning organizations with 69 questions, which data obtained its implementation were analyzed by methods of exploratory factor analysis and partial least squares in SPSS and Smart PLS software. Findings: The findings showed that the factor load of all questions was higher than 0.50 and significant, and the correlation coefficients of the categories of causal conditions, contextual conditions, intervening conditions, central phenomenon, strategies and consequences were less than 0.45, and indicating their non-overlapping. Also, content validity ratio and Cronbach and combined reliability of the categories were estimated higher than 0.70 and 0.80, respectively. In addition, according to the indicators of commonality and redundancy, the obstacle model of creating learning organizations had a good fit and the effect of causal conditions, contextual conditions and intervening conditions on central phenomenon, the effect of central phenomenon on strategies and the effect of strategies on outcomes were significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The designed obstacle model of creating learning organizations can help to university officials in designing programs to remove obstacle of creating learning organizations

The current research was conducted to analyze the components of intercultural competencies of senior managers in Iraqi health organizations with a qualitative method of thematic analysis using Sterling's (2001) approach. The research community was the senior managers of the Ministry of Interior, hospitals, and health service institutions of Iraq, among  whom 20 people were reached through purposeful sampling based on specific criteria, and data saturation was reached. Data validity was confirmed by two coders and external auditors. Results indicated that the 83 codes extracted in the interviews can be categorized into five dimensions: knowledge, attitude, insight, action, and intercultural ability. The results of the content analysis of participants' interviews showed that intercultural competency can be divided into five levels of knowledge, insight, ability, activism, and intercultural attitude, with ten components of intercultural awareness, intercultural education, understanding of cultural context, cultural self-efficacy, intercultural adaptation, intercultural sensitivity, intercultural experience, intercultural communication, intercultural positivity, and empathic attitude. To achieve effective intercultural communication, Iraqi senior managers need to learn intercultural competencies to achieve a high level of communication and development in health organizations.

This study is aimed at determining the dimensions of electronic customer relationship management (eCRM) of Gharzolhasaneh Mehr Iran Bank. The qualitative research method was thematic analysis using an exploratory inductive approach in which 4 main dimensions (comprehensive themes), 13 components (organizing themes), and 116 indicators (basic themes) were presented. Then the experts agreed on these items and finally, 104 indicators (basic themes) were approved. Content validity (0.42) was confirmed, reliability was 0.95 through the Holesti method. 4 business dimensions (branding, marketing, customer strategy, and advertising components); Administrative dimension (organizational) (organizational structure, value creation strategy, and organizational culture components); Communication dimension (information components, information technology, interaction, and support), and also management dimension (financial management, knowledge and learning management components) were identified and approved.
