Abstract
Empowerment of female sports managers affects the performance of sports organizations. The purpose of this study was to develop a conceptual model of professional empowerment of female managers in sports organizations. The statistical population included two sections of human resources (managers, professors, etc.) and information resources (books, articles, documents, etc.) related to the research topic. Adequate sampling with a judgmental method based on achieving theoretical saturation (n=17) with research tools included systematic library study and structured exploratory interviews. The validity of the instrument was evaluated and confirmed based on the legal and scientific validity of the sample, expert opinion and agreement between the correctors. The conceptual model consisted of three consecutive levels of contextual, structural-process and functional (89 components, 22 dimensions and 10 perspectives). Background level in two perspectives of national management and sports environment; A structural-process level component also includes five perspectives; Strategy, system capacity building, information supply, organizational context and job preparation; Functional levels also included perspectives on empowerment, professionalization, and professional empowerment outcomes. Based on the research findings, it can be said that the professional empowerment system for female sports managers is a systematic process from contextual factors to consequences, and its implementation, despite the complex organizational conditions, can have a significant effect on performance and teaching gender justice in the sports organizations.
