Abstract
The purpose of this study was to study the role of organizational culture in the relationship between transformational leadership and organizational citizenship behavior. The research is in terms of data collection, correlation and purposeful application. The statistical population of the study was the staff of sport media in the city of Zahedan who was counted. Data collection tools consisted of three transformational leadership questionnaires Bernard & Bess (1985), organizational citizenship behavior (Oregon et al., 1997) and Organizer Cultural Inventory (2000). To resubmit research questionnaires, the convergent and divergent validity and combination reliability and their alpha-coronbach were confirmed. The fitting of the model of measurement, structural and general model was verified by partial least squares method and PLS software. The coefficients of F2, Q2, and R2 and GOF were in the acceptable range. The results of the test showed that the significance coefficients of T-value and z-value (Sobel test) are outside the range of the absolute value of 27.2. With a confidence of 0.99%, direct and indirect relationships between variables are significant. The results indicate that there is a significant relationship between organizational and organizational citizenship behavior. The leadership of Afrin's transformation has a very strong and positive relationship with organizational culture. Organizational culture also causes organizational citizenship behaviors in the organization, and these two variables have a positive and constructive relationship. Ultimately, organizational culture plays a role as an intermediary in the relationship between leadership of Afrin's transformation and organizational citizenship behavior.
