Today, Paying attention to Human Resource Development (HRD) is one of the essential priorities of any organization. Considering this necessity is important in improving the effectiveness of organizations. Therefore, while studying human resource development strategies, it is necessary to provide an appropriate model that guarantees the promotion of organizational effectiveness. This research aims to design a local model for public organizations, evaluates the evolution of human resources, and designs an appropriate model of human resource development to enhance the effectiveness of public organizations. In this study, a mixed-method approach (quantitative-qualitative research) was used to explain the model. In the qualitative part of the research, the fuzzy Delphi technique was used to extract factors from the experts who were selected through the targeted non-probability sampling method. In the quantitative section, 247 participants (managers, deputies, governorates, governors, and provincial governors, as well as experts in planning modernization and administrative transformation) were selected through purposeful sampling. Questionnaires were used to collect data. To measure the construct validity (convergent, diagnostic, and logical validity), the reliability of the research instrument, and evaluate the research measurement model, the confirmatory factor analysis was used through AMOS24 software. The results showed that the final model of the research consisted of three main dimensions: individual (competency development, knowledge and information sharing, commitment, and mutual trust), organizational (staff training, organizational justice, service compensation system, meritocracy, and talent management), and environmental (economic, political, and cultural-social).
