A total of 15 faculty members participated in the semi-structured interview process. Data collection was continued until the stage of theoretical saturation. The data were analyzed during the three stages of open, axial and selective coding.After identifying the constituent elements of the quality of faculty members' performance and the factors affecting the quality of performance, a model for improving the quality of faculty members' performance of Farhangian University was developed.
Findings: Findings showed that the quality of faculty members' performance as the main variable of the research is influenced by various factors. These factors include 5 main components: causal causes (2 categories), strategies (2 categories), environmental conditions, (6 categories), mediating conditions (3 categories) and consequences (2 categories).
