CONTEXT Despite serious and widespread efforts to improve the quality of health care, many patients still suffer preventable harm every day. Hospitals find improvement difficult to sustain, and they suffer "project fatigue" because so many problems need attention. No hospitals or health systems have achieved consistent excellence throughout their institutions. High-reliability science is the st...

Organizations are increasingly becoming dynamic and unstable. This evolution has given rise to greater reliance on teams and increased complexity in terms of team composition, skills required, and degree of risk involved. High-reliability organizations (HROs) are those that exist in such hazardous environments where the consequences of errors are high, but the occurrence of error is extremely l...

Background A high-reliability organization (HRO) is a separate paradigm can indicate medical error reduction and patient safety improvement. Hospitals, as vital organizations in the health care system, can transform to HROs to achieve optimal performance and maximum safety in order to manage unpredicted events efficiently. Therefore, the aim of this research was to determine the knowledge of ma...

aim of the present research was to design a proper model for management of knowledge in environmental organizations of country. in study of the model, suitability of the proposed model was researched by asking views of directors, deputies, managers of groups and scientific board members of environmental organizations of country. for this purpose, with review of research literature, insight pro...

the study aimed at presenting an appropriate framework for designing & implementing knowledge management projects within research & knowledge-based organizations while focusing on the knowledge culture. first, the available literature was reviewed & the influential indices & factors regarding the knowledge culture were extracted. then, a conceptual model for evaluating the knowledge culture was...
