Extended Abstract This study aims to evaluate the effect of competitive intensity on organizational performance. Researchers believe brand image and strategic human resource management may mediate this effect. This is an applied descriptive survey on a random sample of Mazandaran hotels. The sample consists of thirty-two hotels out of forty-eight total populations. We conducted the survey on a questionnaire contains thirty-eight factors. A partial least squares(PLS) confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) is used to verify the factor structure of observed variables. While indirect positive effect of competitive intensity on organization performance with mediating role of brand image is reported, similar role for strategic human resource management as a is not supported. As a result of this effect, customer interest must be in the center of all other hotels marketing activities. The establishment of online reservation systems and to keep on updating website assist preferable expression of customer interest.

Discussion and Results Indirect positive effect of competitive intensity on organization performance with mediating role of brand image is reported. indirect positive effect of competitive intensity on organization performance with mediating role of HR strategic management is not verified. As expected, competitive intensity is significantly related to brand image with 2.07 t statistic and 0.41 coefficient. Furthermore, brand image is significantly related to organizational performance with 2.73 t statistic and 0.46 coefficient. On the other site, while competitive intensity is not significantly related to HR strategic management with 0.38 t statistic, HR strategic management is not significantly related to organizational performance with 1.92 t statistic as well.
