According to Bourdieu, symbolic capital is the key to influence hearts and instill legitimacy and acceptance for a manager so that others obey him/her. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to design a symbolic capital model of leaders in the Iranian cultural organizations through structural-interpretive modeling (ISM). Therefore, 10 factors of the symbolic capital reproduction were collected through documentary and library research and based on the capital conversion approach. Then, by obtaining the opinion of academic experts and cultural managers, these components were confirmed and corrected, and based on the opinion of the managers of the studied organization and through the structural-interpretive modeling, the final model was created at six levels. The results showed that the most important factor for the formation of symbolic capital in the leaders of cultural organizations is their competencies. The next levels included their output and attainment of organizational honors. If these are combined with advertisement and personal branding, they can set the ground for the achievement of tangible and intangible assets, creation of social capital (trust, support), and attainment of reputation as the products of symbolic capital for the leader. Finally, based on MICMAC analysis, the components of the model were located in the quadratic matrix in terms of penetration and dependence.
