Our statistical population includes all the teachers, managers and principals of Sarein city, numbering 108 people, due to the small number of the population, all people were selected as a sample, and the questionnaire link was sent to the people through Shad virtual space. To collect data, two questionnaires of positive organizational behavior by Luthans et al. (2007) and Hersey and Goldsmith's organizational performance (2003) were used. The reliability of the questionnaires was reported as 0.90 and 0.86 respectively.
