Thereafter, these sources were analyzed using grounded theory and structural modeling. In this qualitative study, a researcher-made checklist was provided to experts to identify the internal relationship among the components of each variable. The exploratory approach was used in the current study since the focus was on the use of qualitative methods. To identify the dimensions of the model and its associated factors, the indicators were firstly extracted using library studies. The Delphi method was then performed in three steps to monitor the indicators and obtain the final dimensions of the model. The statistical population of the study included all managers and experts of the human resources unit with more than 15 years of work experience in the studied university. MAXQDA software was used to record and manage the codes, and finally, the concept model was designed. FINDINGS: After analyzing the studies and conducting interviews with experts, "employee development and empowerment" was selected as the main category. It encompasses such issues as training and productivity of human resources, development of personnel capabilities, sustainable development of human capital, highlighting the importance of strategic human resource management by the management system, senior managerschr('39') support from human resources, and the independence of human resources unit. The relationship of other classes with the central class can be realized in five ways: causal conditions, control system, motivation, and appropriate counseling lead to the development and empowerment of employees.
