    1-1. Introduction

    The basis of any movement towards growth and development and organizational transformation, improving the work process in organizations is to know the current situation, to identify the strengths and weaknesses, and then to design well-considered plans to improve the flow of affairs. A healthy organization is a place where people want to stay and work and be useful and effective people themselves. Organizational health is another framework for conceptualizing the general climate of an organization. On the other hand, a healthy and supportive organizational atmosphere increases people's confidence and morale, and of course increases the efficiency of employees, which in turn increases the efficiency of employees, which is considered an important factor in increasing the effectiveness of the organization. Organizational health was defined by Manti and Maliz (1969) and while proposing a plan to measure the health of organizations, he claimed that organizations will not always be healthy. In his opinion, organizational health refers to the durability and survival of the organization in its environment and its adaptation to it and the promotion and expansion of its ability to compromise more (Aleza Band, 2017). A healthy organization is a place where people come to their workplace with passion and are proud to work in this place. In fact, the health of the organization in terms of physical, mental, security, belonging to meritocracy and valuing the knowledge, expertise and character of the beneficiaries and developing their capabilities and performing the tasks assigned by their subsystems have a significant impact on the effectiveness of the behavior of any system. Polanyi [1] (2004), citing Keith Davis, introduces a healthy organization as an organization in which employees feel that they are doing something beneficial and useful and achieve a sense of personal growth and development. Layden and Klingel believe that organizational health is an almost new concept and includes not only the organization's ability to perform tasks effectively, but also the organization's ability to grow and improve. In

    healthy organizations, committed and conscientious employees, with high morale, open communication channels and with
    high achievements; are bred Organizational health is one of the most important issues in the performance of employees of any organization and is one of the basic foundations of job satisfaction and adaptability, and as a result, the effectiveness of organizational processes. Job compatibility is an important factor for continued successful employment.Every person expects that employment in the desired job will provide him with satisfaction, health and credit and satisfy his basic needs. In the field of job compatibility, various definitions have been presented. It can be said that job adaptability is a person's psychological adaptability to the desired job after employment. Job adaptability is a combination of psychological and non-psychological factors. Non-psychological factors include all the work tools that are used by the working person in some way to do the work. In spite of the non-psychological factors that include tools and devices that are outside the person's existence, the psychological or internal factors include the feelings and attitude of the person towards his job and define the relationship of the person with his work. In other words, psychological factors include personal characteristics and learned experiences of a person in relation to his job (Zonker [2], 2008).

    In many organizational health programs, efforts have been made to increase the job satisfaction of employees by improving their internal motivation level (Deliz[3], 2006). Today, job satisfaction is the prevailing attitude that most studies of organizational behavior; Both in theoretical and practical researches, from job design to supervision. To the extent that it is considered as a central variable in these studies (Erdheim[4], 2006).

    Job satisfaction is one of the most important factors in job success, and it is also a factor that increases efficiency and individual satisfaction. Researchers have defined job satisfaction from different perspectives and believe that if the job provides the desired pleasure for the person, then the person is satisfied with his job. A certain combination of various factors, whether internal, such as the feeling of pleasure from doing work, or external, such as rights and benefits, and relationships in the work environment, makes a person happy and satisfied with his job (Askari, 2012). Job satisfaction has many behavioral and organizational consequences, among which we can mention withdrawal, absenteeism, leaving the job, burnout, physical and psychological health, aggressive behavior and theft at work, and life satisfaction. In general, it can be said that organizational health, job adaptability, and job satisfaction are key and important topics in every job and profession. In other words, as long as people in organizations are not able to adapt to their jobs and feel satisfied with their jobs, as well as the atmosphere of the organization is devoid of organizational health factors, the process of achieving the goals of the organization will be disrupted and cause irreparable damage to the life of the person and waste of the organization's resources. These offices, like any other organization, may face risks such as lack of organizational health, lack of satisfaction and job compatibility among employees. Managers of these departments must have sufficient knowledge of these risks to guide the organization towards achieving its goals and prevent the wastage of human and non-human resources by making appropriate decisions at certain times. With this explanation, the purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between organizational health and job satisfaction among sports managers in Fars province.

    1-2. Statement of the problem

    One ??of the most important resources of any organization is its human resources. The constituents of this force are people with feelings who, if they have enough motivation, use their talents and skills to serve the organization. Having the morale and job satisfaction of employees is considered a very important factor in achieving high productivity of organizations. Also, one of the important factors in increasing the mental energy of the employees of an organization is improving their job satisfaction (Ghanbari, 2007). In fact, job satisfaction is an important indicator of job adaptability. That is, if there is a match between a person's abilities and his job conditions, satisfaction is achieved, and job satisfaction causes a person to stay in his job. Adaptation is a growing and dynamic process, involving a balance between what individuals want and what their society accepts. In other words, adaptation is a two-way process.
