The phenomenon of organizational silence among physical education teachers is considered one of the most important obstacles to promoting transparent communication, professional functioning, and active participation in schools. The aim of the present study was to explain the factors affecting the organizational silence of physical education teachers and to provide strategies for overcoming it, emphasizing the role of restorative justice. This study was conducted with a qualitative approach and data-based theory method. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 20 teachers, administrators, education experts, and educational science specialists in a purposeful manner and analyzed through open, axial, and selective coding. Validity and reliability were confirmed. The findings showed that organizational silence is the result of causal conditions such as institutional distrust, communication blockage, lack of justice in resource allocation, and bitter experiences resulting from expressing opinions. Background conditions such as a general conservative atmosphere, structural incoherence in the school system, and weakness in intra-organizational interactions provide a platform for the development of this phenomenon. At the same time, variables such as the lack of institutional cohesion in the face of cultural conflicts and legal pressures play an inhibiting role in breaking out of silence as intervening conditions. In the meantime, strategies such as institutionalizing restorative justice, strengthening human resources, expanding cultural and communication capacities, and promoting teachers' social participation can pave the way out of silence. The consequences of implementing such strategies can be seen at both individual (improving mental health) and organizational (increasing social capital and improving school communications) levels.

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to compile and prioritize the strategies and consequences of handing over state sports clubs to the private sector using the hierarchical AHP technique.Method: The research process was carried out in two stages. In the first stage, in order to identify the strategies and consequences of handing over state sports clubs to the private sector, by reviewing the literature and research background, a list of indicators of strategies and consequences of handing over state sports clubs to the private sector was prepared. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by asking experts and its reliability through Cronbach's alpha (0.81). In the second stage, the relative weight and rank of each of the identified indicators was calculated by asking the opinions of 74 officials of the football federation, university professors and club managers through the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique and using Excel software. becameFindings: The findings showed that the most important strategies for handing over football clubs to the private sector included having a written strategic financial plan, the existence of specialized agencies for sports marketing, creating club unions and transparency in financial information. The most important consequences of handing over football clubs to the private sector included managerial, economic and political consequences, respectively.Conclusion: According to the findings, it is suggested that with privatization, while facilitating the training of professional managers, the quality of management in the Magpies Club will increase and economic prosperity will be provided.

In the present study, a model was developed and examined to investigate the effects of authentic leadership, job autonomy, organizational justice, and organizational support on employee authenticity, with the mediating role of basic psychological need satisfaction. The research design was descriptive and cross-sectional. Using simple random sampling, 200 athlete employees of the Welfare Organization of East Azerbaijan Province were selected as the study sample. Participants completed the Employee Authenticity at Work Scale (Van den Bosch & Taris, 2014), the Authentic Leadership Questionnaire (Avolio, Gardner, & Walumbwa, 2006), the Job Autonomy Scale (Hackman & Oldham, 1975), the Perceived Organizational Support Scale (Eisenberger et al., 1986), the Perceived Organizational Justice Scale (Colquitt, 2001), and the Basic Psychological Needs Scale (LaGuardia et al., 2000). Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling with AMOS software.The results of the structural equation modeling indicated that authentic leadership had a strong and significant direct effect on employee authenticity (β = 0.79, p < 0.001), and basic psychological needs played a significant mediating role in this relationship (β = 0.17, p < 0.001). Moreover, although job autonomy (β = 0.58) and organizational justice (β = 0.12) did not have significant direct effects, they indirectly contributed to employee authenticity by enhancing the satisfaction of basic psychological needs.
