Purpose: education plays a key role in empowerment of human resources. Thus, the present research was done to present and validate the human resources empowerment model with emphasis on education in the ornamental and building stone industry. Methodology: this descriptive-analytical study was of correlation type. The statistical population consisted of the staff at Iran's stone statistics and information center as many as 425 persons in 50 companies. The sample size was determined 200 according to Cochran formula; this number was chosen through stratified random sampling method based on the occupational unit. The research instruments included demographic information form capturing gender, age, level of education, years of working background, and a researcher-made questionnaire ( 50 items), whose face validity was confirmed based on expert opinion, while its reliability was calculated using Cronbach alpha method on 30 staff as 0.95. The data were analyzed by exploratory factor analysis and structural equations modeling methods in SPSS-25 and Smart PLS-3 software. Findings: the findings indicated that empowerment of human resources has 10 factors of change and innovation, managerial functions, learning, development of human resources, behavioral factors, organizational factors, the strategic factors of organization, environmental factors, cultural and leadership factors as well as knowledge beyond the technical knowledge. The factor load of all of its items was above 0.40; the convergent validity of the factors was found above 0.60 using the average variance extracted method. The reliability of all of the factors using Cronbach alpha and mixed method was above 0.70. Furthermore, the human resources empowerment model with emphasis on education in the ornamental and building stone industry had suitable and acceptable fitting, and the empowerment of human resources with emphasis on education had a direct and significant effect on all of the 10 factors (P<0.001). Conclusion: given the suitable model of human resources empowerment with emphasis on education in the ornamental and building stone industry, experts and planners can take effective steps for empowerment of human resources through the 10 identified factors.

Abstract The present study is a qualitative research with a phenomenological approach that has been conducted to identify the dimensions and components of professional development of primary school principals and to develop its framework. The statistical population of the study was the principals of public primary schools in Tehran in the academic year of 2019-2020. In two stages of sampling, samples were selected by quota and then purposive sampling methods. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data. The interview continued until the data exploration and data collection process reached a theoretical saturation point after interviewing 14 people. Data were analyzed by open and axial coding steps. Two methods of verifying the interviewees and verifying an external expert were used to control the validity. Two methods of verifying the interviewees and verifying an external expert were used to control the validity. To determine the reliability, two methods of reviewing the writings and also the method of recoding were used. The agreement was calculated in the coding homogeneity and the agreement coefficient was 86%. Findings showed that the professional development framework for primary school principals has 3 dimensions, 14 components with 117 indicators  Which includes : the content dimension of professional development (with components of general management knowledge, specialized management knowledge, interactive skills, resource management skills, professional skills, personal inclinations, managerial attitude, physical and mental ability and intellectual ability), the dimension of professional development process (with the components of self-development actions and developer relations) and the dimension of organizational requirements (with the components of knowledge acquisition and acquisition of skills, modification of selection and appointment methods of managers, improvement of organizational structure and processes).

این پژوهش به منظور شناسایی و اولویت بندی نشانگرهای کلیدی عملکرد در مدارس ابتدایی به روش اکتشافی و با بهره گیری از روش های دلفی فازی و سوآرا انجام شده است. خبرگان(جامعه آماری پژوهش)، شامل اساتید مدیریت آموزشی و متخصصان تعلیم و تربیت در وزارت آموزش و پرورش هستند که از طریق روش نمونه گیری هدفمند تعداد 15 نفر تا رسیدن به اشباع نظری انتخاب شدند. ابزار گردآوری داده ها، مصاحبه ساختاریافته است. از مولفه ها و نشانگرهای استخراج شده از ادبیات پژوهش به عنوان پایه و اساس طراحی مصاحبه ساختاریافته استفاده شد. برای شناسائی و غربالگری نشانگرها، از روش دلفی فازی استفاده شد. یافته های پژوهش نشان داد که مدارس دوره ابتدایی دارای 102 نشانگر در 6 مولفه توسعه روابط انسانی، برنامه ریزی استراتژیک، رشد و یادگیری، آموزش و ارزشیابی، مدیریت و رهبری و محیط و جامعه هستند. در پایان با روش سوآرا وزن نهایی مولفه ها و نشانگرهای کلیدی موردنظر به دست آمد که مولفه های مدیریت و رهبری، رشد و یادگیری و محیط و جامعه با اهمیت ترین مولفه ها معرفی شدند. با توجه به نتایج پژوهش می توان اذعان نمود، مدارس و نهادهای بالادستی آن هنوز نیازمند اقدامات مؤثرتری در زمینه مدیریت عملکرد در مدارس ابتدایی هستند.
