Pluralistic Organization Model design for Avionic Industry

The present study has carried out to design a pluralistic organizational model in Iranian Aviation Industries through a descriptive survey. The main concern is the fact that the main organizational elements of the current aviation industry are not capable in tackling and creating a positive interaction with pluralistic and paradoxical elements of external and internal environments. To overcome this problem, a survey has been performed according to the available literature on the issue; 54 main values of pluralistic organizations have been extracted and then reduced to 8 main values through Delphi technique and 30 academics and industrial experts’ opinions. Furthermore, the conceptual model of pluralistic organization in aviation industry has been designed by the interaction of 8 extracted values through Delphi technique. A questionnaire was constructed, and then tested through Cronbach’s Alpha and affirmative factor analysis in order to gain reliability and validity. Moreover, hypothesis testing for 16 hypotheses had been performed through route analysis which led to an accepted conceptual model. This study indicated that “varied environmental beneficiaries”, “pluralistic structure”, “non-occurrence technology”, and “varied human resources” will drive the organization to show pluralistic behaviors such as horizontal integration, networking and road-mapping. Also, it has shown that such values have a strong interaction with each other while the most related variable in each value was identified too.
