Abstract

The study at hand was carried out to identify the antecedents and consequences of organizational impact management. This study was applied in terms of purpose and mixed in terms of approach. In the qualitative phase, the meta-synthesis method was used. To this end, the studies on the antecedents and consequences of organizational impact management in valid datacenters between 1990 and 2021 were collected and examined. Out of these, 67 sources were adopted for the final analysis. To screen and confirm the findings of the qualitative phase, fuzzy Delphi method was used in the quantitative phase. The statistical population of the quantitative phase was comprised of the specialist clerks and experienced managers of Rojin Taak Agro-industries Co., from among whom 30 individuals were selected through purposive sampling. Based on the findings of the study, the antecedents of organizational impact management included three main categories, namely individual, organizational, and environmental categories. On the other hand, the consequences were classified into behavioral, professional, performance, and individual growth and development categories. The results of this study can be used by managers to enhance the positive aspects of organizational impact management and to avoid its negative aspects in the organization.
