The present research aimed to understand the phenomenon of psychological ownership towards management positions among public managers conducted by the phenomenological approach. It was an applied and developmental study in terms of goal, which used semi-structured in-depth interviews for data collection. The statistical population was composed of the managers of public organizations in Ilam province, Iran. The sample was taken by purposive technique and continued until theoretical saturation was achieved. Finally, 20 public organization managers were interviewed. The collected data were analyzed by the thematic method using the content analysis approach. The results revealed one theme, eight categories, and 21 sub-categories. The constituents of the concept of psychological ownership include attachment, continuity, fidelity, accountability, domineering, Identification, autonomy, and self-efficacy belief. Public agencies should take constructive actions to manage this phenomenon.

the researchers used standard questionnaires that had already been approved for their reliability and validity to the study field, ie Ilam Power Distribution Company to distribute and collect the desired meter. Data analysis was performed using structural equation modeling based on the least squares approach using Smart PLS software. The results showed that all the relationships of the drawn path have been confirmed in the conceptual model. Accordingly, perceived organizational support and the support of perceived colleagues have a positive and significant relationship in the occurrence of pioneering behaviors and atmosphere. Also, the relationship atmosphere has a positive and significant effect on the emergence of pioneering behaviors of the company's employees. Finally, perceived organizational support and perceived peer support through the relationship variable have a positive and indirect effect on the emergence of pioneering behaviors. The results of this research will have innovations in the field of reflecting pioneering behaviors in the organization environment and will help managers and employees in understanding and introducing such behaviors and their causes as motivators of pioneering action.

The purpose of this study is to design the model of organizational metamorphosis so that organizations could have a model for adaptation in the environment of frequent and drastic changes in the environment. Due to its nature, the environment of ICT industry has frequent and very drastic changes. In this regard, the conceptual literature related to the research topic has been reviewed and then after holding interviews with ICT industry experts who worked in field of strategy, the components affecting organizational metamorphosis were identified.16 semi-structured interviews were conducted and the model has reached theoretical saturation. Using the accompanying researcher method and also examining the internal agreement index conducted by two experts and obtaining 72% and 76% internal agreement points, the organizational metamorphosis model was drafted. In turbulent environments with rapid and drastic changes, organizations need a model beyond strategic planning and must change their internal structures or even return to their previous configurations.
