Abstract
Empowering leadership is a style of leadership in which leaders can regulate and coordinate the distribution and exercise of power with subordinates to develop their independence and self-control. Empowering leaders motivate people to break passive mindsets, increase their responsibility, and be more accountable for the consequences of their actions. The purpose of this study is to design an interpretive structural model of empowering leadership antecedents in sports organizations. In this study, after studying the research literature and identifying the precedents of empowering leadership and including them in a semi-closed questionnaire based on the Likert scale, a questionnaire was distributed among 18 managers and experts of sports organizations in Kerman province. Snowballs were identified. According to the results obtained from the analysis of recent survey data, a total of 12 variables in 5 levels, the first level (leader trust in employees, leader relationship, self-efficacy, risk-taking and self-esteem), the second level (organizational climate), the third level (organizational structure, distance Power and avoidance of uncertainty), the fourth level (leader personality and desire for control) and the fifth level (gender) were identified as the precursors of empowering leadership.
