Abstract

Many factors influence on career anchor which is very important in human resource development and management. One of the factors that has received less attention is organizational structure. This study investigated the effect of organizational structure on employees’ career anchors in Iranian public and private organizations in 2015. In this research, 339 participants were studied from private and public organizations which 153 people of them were from private organizations and 186 people of them were from public organizations. We utilized inferential statistics in the research. The t-test and correlation coefficient were used to generalize the sample to the population. Edgar Shin’s in 2006 questionnaire was used to measure the career anchor progress and Frank’s questionnaire was used to evaluate the dimensions of organizational structure. The results of the research indicated that there is a negative significant relationship between the components of organizational structure (formality, centralization and complexity) with career anchors in both public and private organizations.
