Abstract

Following a library method, the researchers studied successful projects conducted in the holy war, especially B’esat Bridge on the Arvandrood in Valfajr 8 operation. Factors of their successful fulfilment were discovered by Interviews with the experts. The identified factors were classified into five groups including 1) motivational factors deriving from faith, motivational factors deriving from the Islamic revolution, individual factors relating to the employees, managerial factors relating to planning, and managerial factors relating to administration. The factors were graded according to the interviews and statistics. LISREL software was employed for testing the proposed framework. It was confirmed by them.. The results indicated that motivational factors deriving from faith, and those derived from the Islamic revolution were the most effective factors of success in the holy defense. They gained more priority over managerial knowledge.
