Abstract
The aim of this research is Identifying effective factors in training national team coaches. This study is applied in nature and employs a mixed-method approach (qualitative-quantitative). In the qualitative part, a grounded theory research strategy with a constructive approach was used, while in the quantitative part, a multi-criteria decision-making method was employed. The participants in this research were sports coaches in both qualitative and quantitative sections, selected based on criteria of coaching experience, coaching at a national level, and the ability to collaborate. A purpose sampling method was used, and 27 interviews were conducted upon reaching theoretical saturation. In the qualitative section, the data collection tool was semi-structured interviews, and in the quantitative section, a matrix-like questionnaire with dimensions of 17×17 was used. To evaluate the quality of the qualitative findings, strategies such as credibility, transferability, confirmability, and dependability were employed, while in the quantitative section, face validity and the split-half method were used. Data analysis was conducted using Charmaz's grounded theory guidelines and the DEMATEL technique. The findings revealed that there are 17 variables influencing the development of national team coaches. Organizational support and backing have the most significant impact on this process, while gaining prestige and international status have the least impact. Causal variables such as systematic training, targeted planning, skill enhancement and knowledge development, and provision of equipment and hardware play a fundamental role in coach development. In contrast, outcome variables such as justice and meritocracy, supervision and evaluation, and

In order to collect data, two documentary and field methods have been used. To ensure the reliability of the research measurement tool, three Cronbach's alpha criteria, combined reliability and rho_a reliability were used, and to determine the validity of convergent validity (mean variance extraction variance) and divergent validity (Fornell and Larker test, transverse loads and HTMT test) were also used. Structural equation modeling technique and Smart Pls software were used to analyze the data.
The findings showed that political behavior was a negative effect on managers 'decisions and organizational identity and managers' decisions had a positive effect on organizational identity.
