        Each organization is trying to develop and improve the level of organizational commitment and loyalty of its employees in order to obtain sustainable benefits. One of the effective factors, emphasized in various researches, especially in the religious researches, is the role of ethics in achieving this aim. In recent years, ethics has become especially important because of the failure of large companies and crises in various businesses. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between Islamic labor ethic and organizational commitment and loyalty of employees and its impact on the functional dimensions of industrial clusters. In this research, the statistical population of the survey was the cluster of oil, gas and petrochemistry equipment manufacturers in Markazi province. the sample was selected among managers of companies active in this cluster through the Cochran formula. Data were collected through studying previous study and standard questionnaires and researcher-made questionnaires. To assess the reliability of these questionnaires, Cronbach's alpha test was used. The research hypotheses were tested using the Structural Equation Modeling (VAR) method via Smart PLS software. The results showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between Islamic labor ethic and the functional dimensions of industrial clusters in this statistical population. Also, the organizational commitment of employees plays a mediating role in the relationship between Islamic Labor ethic and functional dimensions of industrial clusters. Manuscript profile

        Today, the use of technology in organizations as a solution to organizational problems has led to the emergence of a new concept: "technological entrepreneurship." Banks are considered one of the most influential organizations in the development of entrepreneurship in the country, and the advancement of technology has prompted the banking industry to utilize technological entrepreneurship to improve efficiency. Therefore, the aim of the current research was to design a technological entrepreneurship model for the Agricultural Bank. This research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-correlational based on the method. The statistical population in the qualitative stage comprised 20 experts who were selected by a purposeful judgment method. In the quantitative stage, there were 250 employees of the Agricultural Bank of Golestan province. The sample size was determined to be 152 people according to the Krejcie and Morgan table, and sampling was done using a simple random method. The Delphi method was used to identify factors, and the structural equation modeling method with Smart PLS3 software was used to design the model. The Delphi results showed that the effective factors on technological entrepreneurship include 36 components in the form of 7 dimensions: inter-organizational, structural, institutional, skill, managerial, market and customer interactions, and technology. Additionally, the results of structural equation modeling showed that inter-organizational (0.792), structural (0.841), institutional (0.846), skill (0.726), managerial (0.628), market and customer interactions (0.598), and technology (0.491) factors have a positive and significant effect on technological entrepreneurship. In conclusion, technological entrepreneurship is considered an important strategy for the Agricultural Bank to remain competitive in a highly dynamic environment. Manuscript profile

Human societies and accounting professions, without adhering to professional ethics They will decline. The purpose of this study is to provide a model of accounting strategies with an emphasis on environmental ethics. The current research has been conducted using a mixed research method in two parts, qualitative and quantitative. The statistical population of the research in the qualitative part is university faculty members and in the quantitative part 194 are managers, experts and knowledgeable people in the field of environmental accounting. To analyze the qualitative data, the method of foundational data theory was used, and in the quantitative part, structural equations were used. The findings of the qualitative section showed that six main categories of senior management's commitment to strategy, uncertainty, social legitimacy, environmental monitoring and control, and accounting information system were identified as dimensions of the model. Finally, in the quantitative part of the results of the model, the effect coefficient of the change factors on the results showed the confirmation of the relationships, and from the results of the goodness of fit index, the value of the fit index was equal to 0.943, which shows the strong fit and desirability of the model.
