Background: Management-level challenges are among the factors that undermine the individuals' adherence to professional behavior in clinical settings. This study investigated glitches of the management system in clinical settings from the perspective of staff, faculty members, and medical students/residents in hospitals affiliated to Tehran University of Medical Sciences. Methods: This qualitative study was conducted in 2 parts by exploring the viewpoints of personnel and physicians. In this regard, 8 focus group discussions were performed with 85 faculty members, clinical residents, and interns. Furthermore, 15 focus group discussions were held with 165 staffs. Available sampling method was applied to collect the participants and the data were analyzed using the content analysis method. Results: A total of 22 focus-group discussions were conducted with 250 participants; Participants' age ranged from 24 to 65 years. Participants' education levels varied from diploma to postgraduate for the staff and from medical student to sub-specialist for the physicians. Finally, management-level barriers, which undermine the staffs' ability to adhere to professional behavior in clinical settings were explained with 315 codes, 12 subcategories, and 2 main categories of "macro management issues " and "hospital management issues". Conclusion: Managers are required to consider providing a proper context for enforcing the professional behavior law, selecting middle managers based on their empowerment in performing the professional behaviors, prioritizing the professional behavior in policy making, and promoting the professional behavior in an administrative system consistent with the health system. In selecting the hospital managers, authorities are recommended to consider the managers' professional behavior and power in implementing the professionalism leadership. Moreover, the possibility of conducting professional behavior should be considered in making the policies.

The Subject

This paper aims to research the possibilities of the gap between knowing-doing in companies that implement the concept of Intellectual Capital (IC). Skandia is the best sample of IC concept and will provide a lot of useful information to conduct the respective project. As a multinational company, Skandia group, develops activities around the globe, and is the pioneer in implementing the concept of IC. Hence, it was chosen to be the subject of this case study research. The research includes interviews, with several people in different positions, in each management level into which every interview is interpreted through hermeneutic approach in order to achieve a better understanding of the phenomenon of the study. The research were made within different offices of company in various cities in Sweden. The study applies the descriptive case study approach, whilst investigated the possibility of gaps of IC between Knowing-Doing. The research shows that the concepts of IC and knowing-doing gap, could be found in headquarters of Skandia to a large extent, and this way basic assumption about a possible gap was verified. The implementation of IC within Skandia and its employees is for sure not completed yet. Also the shareholders are not convinced by the concept if one looks at Skandia´s performance on the stock markets. Nevertheless it offers a rhetorically positive way to tackle future challenges. In that respect this study got a deeper understanding concerning Skandia and IC. The research made many things visible that were not seen in the literature so far.
