Feminism has affected social and organizational position of females throughout the world. However... more Feminism has affected social and organizational position of females throughout the world. However, reflection of feminism on organizational issues is a subject that has not been investigated sufficiently by scholars of different sociocultural background. The aim of this article is to explore the reflections of post-feminist viewpoints on female related issues in organizations, as well as shortcoming of existing cultures and organizational structures from standpoint of postfeminism. Reflection of these views on females-related organizational issues, with more attention to women's lifestyle and career choices and constraints that shape these choices, challenges organizational ignorance of women managerial characteristics and policies towards their job-family decisions (e.g. deficiency of work-family balance policies, overemphasis on work hours, and pale role of men in making a balance on work-family issues).

Authors, have tried to put these three parenting styles together with the parenting matrix to design a pattern for selecting the parenting style based on the parent's level of business understanding and In this pattern, the primary hypothesis, "There is a relation between the parenting style and the level of understanding and help of the parent company with the business in subsidiaries", along with 9 secondary hypotheses are studied and analyzed within the sample chosen from Iranian parent companies. The research methodology is expansive regarding the result, descriptive regarding the objective and quantitive regarding the data type. Statistical method employed in parametric test is the success ratio and in non-parametric test is the sign. Results from analyzing the hypotheses show that the primary hypothesis and three of the secondary hypotheses are confirmed; two of the secondary hypotheses are not confirmed and there was insufficient sample for the remaining four hypotheses in the studied companies and there is a prevailing rational relation between the staff individuals of the parent and the parenting style.

The population of the study is 4235 civil servants in government organizations in Sanandaj. The present study uses stratified random sampling method. Using Cochran's Formula, as many as 352 people were set as the sample size and the same number of questionnaires was filled by the participants. The study was descriptive co relational and was carried out through a descriptive method. A questionnaire was used for data collection to measure the level of work engagement, the questionnaire proposed by Schaufeli and Becker (2003) was used. To measure change acceptance in the respondents, the questionnaire proposed by Saeatchi, Kamkari and Askarian (2010) was designed according to the model by Kurt Lewin. After the validity and reliability of the questionnaires were confirmed, the questionnaires were distributed among the participants. Cronbach's alpha in work engagement and in change acceptance questionnaires were 0.84 and 0.82, respectively. After completing the questionnaire using SPSS20, Pearson correlation analysis and multivariate regression analysis were calculated and analyzed. The results of regression analysis showed that the dependent variable (change acceptance) was directly affected by liveliness and eagerness of the staff. This variable alone explains 44% of acceptance of change variance in this study. The independent variable is directly affected by eagerness variable. This variable alone accounts for 39% of accepting change variance in the population under study. The third determinant of accepting change is the employees' dedication variable. This variable alone amounts to 31% of change acceptance variance by staff in the population under study.
