In today's world of instability, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity, and despite the low-probability and high-impact surprises that lead to unpredictable changes, Iran’s sport needs managers who can analyze the environment of full of fluctuations by using intrinsic and acquired behaviors, and show the appropriate behavior at the right time and adopt the correct strategies.The purpose of this article is analyzing of the behavior of Iran’s senior sports managers and to fill the gap in our understanding of recognizing the types of behavior among senior managers in selected educational, public, championship and professional sports organizations separately. This was done by a behavioral experiment with actor analysis technique and by a strategic planning simulation tool called MACTOR. Data were collected through the participatory observation; By a purposeful selection, 11 sports management experts and 24 people employed or familiar with the 12 organizations studied in this study participated in this behavioral experiment and completed the actor-actor and actor-objective matrices. Convergence and divergence of actors and objectives were carefully examined with software. It was found that political, guiding and MACTOR supportive behaviors are the predominant behaviors of senior sports managers in Iran. It seems that the managers of sports organizations can make positive changes in their future behavior based on past experiences, but successive changes in these organizations will cause missing this opportunity.

The study population consisted of all sports industry experts, sports managers and officials, university professors and experts in the field of sports. The research samples were selected by snowball sampling method and the required sample size was determined based on theoretical saturation criteria. In-depth and semi-structured interviews with 13 people (achieving theoretical saturation and adequacy) and after identifying the main and sub-indicators in the return of social capital based on the role of sports volunteering to achieve research validity of a combination of continuous and long-term involvement criteria, continuous monitoring Researchers' attention (control) of colleagues, progressive mentality, participation of participants and use of multiple information sources were considered. In order to evaluate the reliability of the research, the agreement method of two coders and the researcher coding were used and based on the knowledge of experts, the relationships between the concepts were drawn in the form of fuzzy cognition maps. Excel, FCMapper and FCM EXPERT software were used to draw fuzzy cognitive maps and calculate the related indicators. Cognitive mapping indicators indicated that human resources, personal development, and financial resource management were the most centralized, respectively; This means that they have the greatest impact on the return on social capital based on the role of sports volunteering.
