Structural equation modeling by SPSS22 and AMOS22 software was used to analyze the information collected in the inferential statistics section. The results of model fitting (GFI = 0.94, CFI = 0.91, NFI = 0.94) showed the appropriateness of the model. Also, the results of research path analysis showed that spiritual leadership and its dimensions have a positive and significant direct effect on the development of employees' job enthusiasm.

But the relationship between organizational trauma and work conscientiousness was not significant. Also, the indirect effects of the variables of organizational anti-citizenship behavior, organizational laziness and organizational trauma through organizational pessimism on work conscientiousness were significant. Generally it can be concluded that organizational anti-citizenship behavior, organizational trauma, and organizational laziness can provide the ground for enhancing organizational pessimism and reducing teacher work conscientiousness.

The research was applied and in terms of nature and method, it was correlational and causal-comparative. The statistical population was all employees of the Ministry of Sports and Youth and the statistical sample were 269 persons. In this study, Quantum Leadership (Azimi, 2011), Manpower Productivity (Hersey and Goldsmith, 1980) and structural-interpretive modeling (ISM) Questionnaires were used. The validity of the questionnaires was confirmed using the opinions of 12 sports management experts and the reliability was reported through Cronbach's alpha as 0.87, 0.89 and 0.91, respectively. To analyze data from statistical tests Kolmogorov-Smirnov, t-sample and structural-interpretive modeling (ISM) and SPSS software were used. Findings showed the components of perception and cognition, validity and compatibility of human productivity and components of quantum seeing, quantum thinking, quantum feeling, quantum cognition, quantum action, quantum trust and the existence of quantum leadership at the first level affects the components of ability, motivation and feedback from the productivity of human resources at the second level. Also, the second level components affect the organizational support component of manpower productivity in the third level. Therefore, it can be said that quantum leadership will be able to increase the productivity of human resources in the staff of the Ministry of Sports and Youth.
