What has become a problem for women today is maintaining their position at the managerial level.

To collect data, fuzzy technique was used in the qualitative section and a researcher-made questionnaire was used in the quantitative section. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire were calculated and confirmed by experts and Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.90). To test the research hypotheses, the structural equation model in PLS software was used. Findings: The results showed that organizational and cultural factors have a greater role in explaining job tnure. managers' evaluation based on success instead of gender, equality in the distribution of rewards and results, monitoring the performance of managers away from gender and access to information resources of the organization are the most important factors of job tenure. |
