Identification and explanation of machines and models for promoting participation in defense policiesCase study (Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran)

The Army of the Islamic Republic of Iran is the most vital organization in achieving sustainable security in the society, and its role in the development process of other organizations is very important and determines the speed of achieving their goals. In order to achieve these conditions, we need to design a model of codified and authentic local defense policies. Currently, one of the most important challenges in this field, which has caused the objectives set in the plans and policies of the science and technology field in the armed forces to not be fully realized, is the lack of clear limits of the duties and authorities of the employees, parallel work and redundancies, and the lack of participation of the employees. . Currently, there is no model that shows the promotion of employee participation in defense policies. For this purpose, this research has been conducted with the aim of identifying the dimensions and components of the model of promoting employee participation in defense policies. To achieve this goal, a case study and a qualitative research method were used with the foundation data strategy. The statistical population of the research included all commanders, managers, and academic and executive experts who were studied using snowball sampling, including 6 academic experts and 10 commanders. The data collection method was field and the data collection tools were library studies and semi-structured interviews. In order to obtain the reliability and validity of the data, two methods of review of participants and review of non-participating experts were used in the research. Data analysis during three stages, open coding, central coding and selective coding, which indicates 106 general categories. The findings of the research showed that the obtained model can be used as a scientific and basic theoretical model to promote employee participation in defense policies
