Current Management indices in Iran, and feasibility of improving economic management in 2025 horizon

In this paper we use some institutional and structural indices as proxy for the degree of Management Quality, DMQ for Iran. DMQ can indicate the place and position of current management, to upgrade it toward Optimum management in Iran and other economics. Institutional and structural indices were added to economic and management literature in late1980s and early 1990s. Achieving to these indices in continuation of 21st century has been construing as main remedies for tackling difficulties of developing and less developed countries. Institutional proxies for testing DMQ in this article include corruption control, accountability, rule of law, quality of law, government effectiveness, and political stability. A key purpose of Iranian outlook document, 2025, IOD 2025, at one hand, is mounting to the first economic and scientific rank in the region by 2025. Improving economic management is one obvious requirement in this regard at the other. Thus, by using analytic and statistical methods, this paper is responsible to determine the quality of current management indices in Iran, and how to improve them to achieve optimum level by 2025 horizon. Period of study in this work is 1974-2016 and 24 south west Asian countries are Iranian competitors in this connection. One finding of this research is weak situation of current DMQ as compared to its mentioned competitors in Iran. Eventually this paper is investigating the feasibility to promote the value of current indices in Iran to achieve the value compatible to optimum management ones.
