The research method is descriptive-correlational and applied in terms of purpose. The statistical population of this study was the employees of the Deputy for Management Development and Support Resources of the Ministry of Sports and Youth and its number is 290 people. According to Cochran's formula, the number of samples was 127. The data collection tools of this study were Hejazifar Jihadi Management Questionnaire (2015), Organizational Virtue of Cameron et al. (2004), Shaker Ardakani Organizational Citizenship Behavior (2015) and Amir Sheibani (2001) Political Behavior. Structural equation modeling method under Smart PLS3 software was used to investigate the research model and validate the hypotheses. The results showed, it was found that the variable of jihadi management has a positive and significant effect on organizational virtue. Also, the positive and significant effect of organizational virtue on organizational citizenship behavior and organizational citizenship behavior on employees' political behavior was confirmed. But the effect of jihadi management variable on citizenship behavior was not confirmed. Regarding mediation relations, it was found that organizational virtue mediates the effect of jihadi management on organizational citizenship behavior. Citizenship behavior also plays a mediating role in the relationship between organizational virtue variables and employees' political behavior. However, the effect of mediating the variable of organizational citizenship behavior in the relationship between jihadi management and political behavior of employees was not confirmed.

Reliability of scales was confirmed by Cronbach’s Alfa and composite reliability and validity of the scales was confirmed by content analysis, average variance extracted and confirmatory factor analysis. Data analysis, was done using descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, skewness and kurtosis) and inferential statistics (correlation test, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling) using SPSS 22 and Smart-PLS 2 softwares. The results showed significant correlations among all research variables. Jihadi management and leader member exchange had direct, negative and significant impact on social undermining. Jihadi management had direct, positive and significant impact on leader member exchange. Leader member exchange played mediating role between jihadi management and social undermining. Jihadi management had direct effect on social undermining and indirect effect via the mediating role of leader member exchange and indirect effect is more than direct effect.
