A questionnaire and interview were used to benefit from experts' opinions, including 30 managers and experts in the R&D departments of MAPNA Group. Fourteen indicators in the form of three factors of entrepreneurship, R&D internal capabilities, and R&D external collaboration, were identified. Then conceptual research model was designed, and innovation performance was evaluated using a fuzzy approach and MATLAB software.Findings: The results show that all three factors of R&D internal capabilities, R&D external, and entrepreneurship collaborations have a direct and positive effect on MAPNA Group's innovation performance, and R&D internal capabilities have the most impact, with a score of 7.44. Entrepreneurship has the least impact, with a score of 5.64. Also, innovation performance has the most impact, respectively, on the indicators of the investment in R&D software, the amount of investment in equipment and laboratories, and the percentage of R&D costs of the organization's total sales. All three are indicators of R&D internal capabilities. The level of innovation performance in the MAPNA group was 6.44, which is in the medium to high range.Originality/Value: This study proposed a conceptual model to illustrate the relationship between intrapreneurship, R&D internal capabilities, and R&D external collaboration to engender innovative performance of MAPNA.

Purpose: Although in recent years, Building Information Modeling, as an emerging technology in the Iranian construction industry, has attracted the attention of many people, the low productivity of this industry and the conditions for the realization of many benefits from implementing this technology have faced many obstacles. Implementing such technologies on national, organizational, and individual scales depends on their adoption. According to previous research in this field, unfortunately, the adoption of BIM in Iran is very slow and undesirable.Methodology: The present study obtained the BIM adoption status using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) by distributing a questionnaire among the first-ranked construction companies in Tehran province.Findings: The data analysis using Structural Equation Modeling showed that BIM adoption was below average in all 87 valid samples. The research findings showed that if people imagine using BIM in their minds and beliefs more easily, they think it is useful. Both of these variables lead to a greater intention to adopt BIM technology.Originality/Value: The study indicates that improving the BIM adoption status in the Iranian construction industry may be possible by strengthening individual and behavioural dimensions to further BIM adoption.

Purpose: Developing radical innovation usually involves working with new markets and technologies, which brings high uncertainty and risk. Developing personal innovations due to high uncertainty results in unforeseen problems and happenings. The motivation of employees who are in the direction of conservatism rather than innovation is an important challenge in the growth of big corporates. This study examines how managers motivate individuals to innovate radically. Therefore, managing the motivating factors of the individual sector has an important contribution to radical innovation capability. Methodology: This research presents a theoretical model of managing personal motivation in individual innovation development. The model is tested and analyzed by investigating four present companies.Findings: The findings show managers can impact the initial level of individual motivation and affect development tasks' success by assigning external aims and providing organizational support. These methods could be found at different levels: personnel, project teams, and the organization.Originality/Value: Based on this study, it can be said that using skills and abilities in performing job tasks and promoting functional innovation is effective.

Purpose: The present study was conducted to gather evidence to investigate the relationship between cash holdings, firm value, and financial performance of companies' constraints in financing the Iranian capital market.Methodology: This study was investigated for 91 companies (number of observations 728) in 8 years between 2012 and 2019. Also, panel data regression was used to test the relationships between variables.Findings: The results indicate a nonlinear relationship between cash holdings and performance, and this relationship is inverted U-shaped. Also, this relationship has existed with the performance variable (ROE) as an alternative variable. This study shows a negative relationship between the non-optimal level of cash holdings and financial performance. The results indicate that companies with financial constraints hold cash holdings, which will reduce financial performance.Originality/Value: Evidence of a nonlinear relationship between firm performance and cash holdings under company-specific conditions gives managers and investors the insight to examine the performance of companies, future value, and how they make decisions in certain circumstances, such as financial constraints for companies
