Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between psychological empowerment, organizational deviation and creative behavior among employees of the Saudi Ministry of sports. The researchers employed a descriptive approach specifically using a survey study method  to collect data. The study sample consisted of 1480 participants who were deliberately selected from different categories within the study population. Data was collected using the psychological empowerment scale and questionnaires. The findings revealed that the level of psychological empowerment among employees of the Saudi Ministry of sports was determined to be 60.60%. Additionally, the level of organizational deviation was found to be 52.40% while the level of creative behavior was measured at 51.20%. The study also identified a significant relationship between psychological empowerment, organizational deviation  and creative behavior. The study proposes several recommendations based on its findings. Firstly, it suggests promoting a culture of psychological empowerment within sports institutions to enhance organizational effectiveness and encourage employee creative behavior. This can be achieved through initiatives that empower individuals, give them autonomy  and involve them in decision-making processes. Secondly, the study recommends the implementation of development and training programs for employees in sports institutions and departments. These programs should focus on reducing organizational disintegration and fostering creative behavior. Organizations can create an environment that supports innovation and collaboration by providing employees with the necessary skills and knowledge.  Furthermore, the study highlights the importance of respecting and considering employee motivations and behaviors in organizational management.
