INTRODUCTION: The use of executive coaching has become increasingly popular in the organizational world in the past few decades and is considered a key intervention that increases the capabilities of managers at the professional, individual, and organizational levels. This study aimed to identify the indicators, components, and dimensions of the effectiveness of executive coaching in the Red Crescent Society of Iran. METHODS: This descriptive study was conducted based on an applied research method. The required data were collected using exploratory interviews with 20 experts and activists in the field of human resources education. The obtained data were then analyzed using conventional content analysis, as well as open, axial, and selective coding strategies. FINDINGS: According to the findings of the research, orientation, sociability, regularity, empowerment, personality traits, and infrastructure conditions are among the most important factors affecting executive coaching in the Iranian Red Crescent Society. Moreover, two new constructs, namely formal and informal institutions were identified for the first time in the coaching literature as effective factors in the development of executive coaching. CONCLUSION: This study paved the way for filling in some gaps in executive coaching literature. Unlike many previously conducted studies that have only evaluated the effectiveness of executive coaching, this study identified the set of factors related to the individual, organizational, and institutional levels, as well as infrastructural conditions affecting executive coaching. Moreover, the results led to the addition of two new constructs, such as formal and informal institutions, to the literature on coaching in general and executive coaching in particular.

Nanotechnology, at the intersection of science and engineering, holds immense promise for revolutionizing various aspects of our lives. This study employs the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (SEM AMOS) algorithm to comprehensively analyze the effects of nanotechnology on the future living standards of society. We examine how nanotechnology innovations in fields such as medicine, energy, materials, and electronics are poised to reshape our quality of life. Through an extensive review of existing literature and empirical data, we provide insights into the potential benefits and challenges associated with the widespread adoption of nanotechnology. Our findings suggest that nanotechnology has the potential to significantly enhance future living standards by enabling advancements in healthcare, sustainable energy solutions, and cutting-edge materials. However, we also identify key considerations, including ethical and safety concerns that must be addressed to ensure the responsible development and utilization of nanotechnology. This research contributes to a better understanding of the multifaceted impacts of nanotechnology on society, offering valuable insights for policymakers, researchers, and stakeholders seeking to harness its transformative potential for the benefit of humanity.
