Abstract

Organizations need to employ strategies to maintain and improve valuable resources and use human competencies effectively to achieve development in the current unstable and Knowledge-based environment. One of these strategies is planning and organizing the career path. As a powerful arm of a government, regarding support and food security services, the career development of employees in the Ministry of Agriculture is one of the most important management tasks that creates added value. The present study examines the effect of entrepreneurial organizational leadership and individual entrepreneurial orientation on career development and investigates the mediating role of entrepreneurial leadership. For this purpose, data were collected from 235 employees of the Ministry of Agriculture who were selected randomly through a questionnaire. The results showed that individual entrepreneurial orientation and entrepreneurial organizational leadership had a positive and significant effect on career development, and entrepreneurial leadership significantly mediated the effect of individual entrepreneurial orientation on career development.
