The present study is an applied-analytical research in which employees of combined transport of Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines were chosen as statistical population and 105 of them were selected as sample through stratified random sampling. The required data were collected by means of a questionnaire. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by content validity and its reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha. Data were analyzed by structural equation modeling and path analysis through SPSS and PLS. The results confirmed the impact of strategic approaches of human resources on knowledge management and organizational innovation capacity. Examining the impact of strategic approaches to human resources aspects on knowledge management and organizational innovation capacity, the impact of training aspect from strategic approaches to human resources was the only aspect to be approved by all aspects of the two variables.

Knowledge management is considered as one of the most significant competitive resources for any organization such that most believe that the faster the companies acquire knowledge taking into application, the more they are successful in a competitive market. On the other hand, the competition among companies is no more important; instead, the competition among supply chains is highly focused in order to provide the most value to the customer. Research statistical population included 30 individuals of all practitioners and middle management experts in National copper industries company headquarter. The present research used Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) to rank knowledge management effective factors in supply chain of national Iranian copper industries company. Research results showed that management factors, knowledge creation, acquisition and production process, knowledge assessment and feedback process, knowledge transformation, sharing and distribution process, organizational culture, knowledge use, application and utilization process as well as employees’ characteristics are in order the most to the least important knowledge management criteria in supply chain of national copper industries company through using FAHP technique.

The present study aims to investigate the effective variables of knowledge management in food exports in Iran. A new model was designed in this research on the basis of achieved statistical data from production associations and export firms. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was applied to assess the impact of effective variables of knowledge management in food exports. Suggested model of the research is comprised of eight dimensions which are as follows: specialized relations, coordinated knowledge, knowledge tools, organizational knowledge, knowledge process, knowledge chain, knowledge hardware, and knowledge feasibility. Target population of the study was consisting of 57 production associations which export food from Iran. The sales staffs and business departments formed the target population, and 317 questionnaires were validly obtained to test the research model. Exploratory factor analysis and Amos software were utilized for modeling. This study indicates that knowledge management is positively effective in the process of food exports in Iran, and all effective factors of knowledge management significantly affect the efficiency and performance of exporting. Eight-dimensional model which is suggested in this research introduces a practical strategy of evaluating the effective factors of knowledge management in food exports.
