Abstract

In government organizations, the productivity of human resources and their durability are of great importance. Because these organizations are responsible for providing public services and meeting the needs of citizens, the use of power and organizational participation tactics is vital to improving the performance and durability of manpower. Therefore, this research aimed to identify the factors of power and organizational participation tactics, durability, and productivity of human resources in government organizations of Kerman province and provide its model. The research applied a semi-structured interview with 15 experts, including senior managers and faculty professors, through purposeful sampling for data collection. Data were then analyzed using the themed analysis method. The reliability was examined and approved using the two-coding and test-retest methods. To calculate the agreement, the Capa coefficient was used. The results showed that this pattern includes organizational participation, manpower sustainability, power-application tactics, and human resource efficiency. Finally, the results were categorized into 49 basic, 18 organized, and four pervasive themes. Power application tactics and organizational participation in government agencies play a vital role in the sustainability and productivity of human resources. Creating a space of cooperation and interaction, encouraging participation in organizational decision-making, providing educational opportunities, improving work spirit, and promoting trust in the organization can contribute to productivity and manpower sustainability. Therefore, keen use of these tactics can lead to improved performance and quality of services provided by government agencies.
