One of the characteristics that show the dynamism of today's organizations is the benefit of organizations from the constructive and useful point of view of employees in increasing the quality of decisions making in organizations. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to identify the factors affecting the expression of organizational dissent of employees in the university. The method of this research is qualitative and exploratory which has been done using content analysis and documental study. The statistical sample of this research included 120 articles published in the valid journals searched in domestic and foreign scientific databases by searching for keywords and performing the screening process. Finally, 30 works were selected for further review and analysis. The result of the literature review and analysis was the extraction of 31 basic themes, 13 constructive themes, and 4 comprehensive themes. Findings showed that the factors affecting the willingness of employees to express organizational opposition are 4 main dimensions: personal, communicational, organizational, and environmental, each of which can affect the willingness of employees to express organizational dissent, but the decision to choose the approach of expressing depends on which particular issue and factor will be affected in that particular situation at the time of selection; therefore, depending on the circumstances, it is necessary to identify the considerations of each factor and consider the correct approach to express organizational dissent of employees.

Transparency in governmental organizations demonstrates the transparency of decision-making principles and mechanisms governing the administrative performance of government. It is used as the most effective tool to fight against bureaucratic corruption to establish an efficient and effective government and to make a sustainable society. So this research aimed to present a model of factors affecting the performance transparency of governmental organizations. Firstly, factors affecting the performance transparency of governmental organizations were addressed by library studies and then they were investigated by university experts with relevant education in the country through Delphi technique. After validation and modification of these factors, the final questionnaire was compiled to collect quantitative data and was available for managers of various governmental organizations in Iran through a convenient sampling method. Finally, path analysis and model presentation was conducted through structural equation modeling and the Friedman test was used to rank the factors. Results of the study revealed that the model of factors affecting the governmental organization performance transparency includes six variables: individuals’ role and performance, information technology and communication, legal issues, environmental issues, management issues, and structural and process issues. These variables are global, but their analysis and ranking from the viewpoint of governmental managers showed that the majority of the path coefficient is related to information technology and communication variable. And the other two factors of structural and process factors and information technology and communication have the highest rank in performance transparency of governmental organizations in Iran.
