In this paper, we present an empirical study on employees of a private bank to find important factors influencing creative habits. The proposed study of this paper uses Pearson correlation test to detect any meaningful relationship between independent and dependent variables. The results of the study have indicated that sense of being effective is number one priority followed by sense of competence and sense of being meaningful and sense of choice. We have also performed an investigation between employees' personal characteristics and empowering capabilities and the results of our survey have recommended that among different factors including age, gender, educational background and job experience, only age had important effect on empowering employees.

The aim of this paper is to determine the training courses' efficiency in Tehran municipality based on Kirkpatrick's model. The population of the research includes all training courses performed in Tehran municipality in 2008. Using a simple random sampling method, one training period was chosen, which includes 206 participants, 103 financial managers and rest their direct supervisors. For gathering relevant data in first level (reaction), third level (skill), fourth level (objective) and fifth level (rate of investment return), closed-ended questionnaire based on the Likert scale was used. For the second level (learning), we employed scores obtaining from masters in charge of training course (post-test). Our results show that in terms of the mayors' point of view, training courses in all levels except the second level had significant impact while financial managers saw these courses insignificant in all levels.
