Abstract

Background :Organizational Loyalty is a crucial factor for the growth and dynamics of organizations. The present study aims to explore the reasons for organizational Loyalty among members of the medical science faculty in southern Iran. Methods :This qualitative study was conducted in 2022. Participants included academic staff members from universities of medical sciences in southern Iran, specifically in the Fars province. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews and analyzed using conventional content analysis. Results :The research indicated that, despite dissatisfaction with organizational management, many participants felt a strong sense of belonging and made efforts to maintain their Loyalty. However, given the social and economic conditions in Iranian society, maintaining such Loyalty and belonging requires significant support from organizational managers. The three main categories identified in this research are organizational Spirituality, social Capital, and Organizational Affiliation. Conclusions :The study concluded that, despite weaknesses in organizational management and leadership, staff members demonstrated organizational Spirituality and Loyalty to the University of Medical Sciences. This Loyalty is rooted in the personal characteristics of participants and the social Capital of medical universities. The study proposes emphasizing new dimensions of organizational Loyalty.
