The reliability of communication skills (0.81), cultural intelligence questionnaire was (0.88) and reliability of classify sport managers’ questionnaire was (0.84). Statistical methods included analysis of both descriptive and inferential statistics using SPSS software and software LISREL and structural equation modeling was performed to assess the relationships between variables. The results show that the communication skills and cultural intelligence and classify sport managers, there are significant relationship, the output shows the application of structural equation model is appropriate (RMSEA=0.037, GFI=0.912, AGFI=0.902). Hence the required proper planning in order to improve their communication skills and cultural intelligence organizations for sports managers in these organizations is effective as ever. Because of the significant aims of the athletic directors, managers tend to imitate and Ambassador therefore, the authorities have the right people in the suitable strategy for post management have, because it seems intuitive managers and analysts can better brighter prospects for the exercise of the imagination.

Talent identification is an important topic in sports world. One of the fields of Talent identification is talent development. Suitable training is provided for players in talent development to understand their talent and reach to prominent and professional levels.

The population includes all hockey players of Markazi province who were active in this sport regulary and continucusly, and all of them were chosen as samples. Measurement tool was thequestionnaire adapted from Wang et al (2011) (α=0.858). The resuits were analysed by Fridman Test. The results showed that in talent development environment of hockey. These elements have been considered respectively: long-term progression, communication, supportive networks, and principles of talent development, quality preparation, financial support, motivative supportive environment and athletic perception. So, it’s recommended to pay attention to elements which were considered more and take some policies and actions about elements which were considered less.

Different research studies indicate that the sport can affect in different ways on economy and have significant role to the growth and development of economies. One of the positive effects of sport is the impact on gross domestic product, therefore the purpose of the present study was investigating the effect of government and household sport's expenditure to gross domestic product Iran, during the years 1984-2012. Econometrics method and model of ordinary least squares (OLS) and Eviews software (8) are used, and required information have been collected from the Management and Planning Organization, Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Central Bank of Iran. The results showed a significant positive effect on household spending and government exercise coefficient (0/028765) on Gross Domestic Product (GDP), whereas considering logarithmic nature of the model, this result means that one percent increase in the cost of government and households, assuming fixing other control variables, is equal to 0/029percentage increase in GDP.

Knowledge Management (KM) is a process that transforms individual knowledge into organizational knowledge. The aim of this research is to present a model that consists of a set of facilitators for successful KM implementation in National Olympic Committee (NOC) of Iran. Population of this study was all of managers and staff in NOC. Exploratory factor analysis was conducted to identify the factor structure of this study, and it yielded 5 main factors consisting of 13 dimensions. The Convergent and discriminant validity of the measurement scales by using average variance extracted in this study were confirmed. The proposed model with 5 constructs was evaluated through Structural Equation Modeling analysis.The results demonstrate that the proposed model has the best-fitting and show the amount effects of any observed independent variables on latent independent variable. Moreover, our results reveal pepole as the most vital factor of knowledge management effectiveness and then Information technology, organisational culture, KM strategy and finally organizational structure respectively.
