Abstract

Breakthrough Management (BM) is a kind of an essential organizational creativity emphasized on change and transformation with relying on the theory of transformational leadership. Rather than being step by step process, changes in BM seems like a move ahead rapidly. This quality is expected to cause an essential and rapid transformation in business settings. The existing research aimed to investigate the relationship between BM and effective organization. The sample of the study which conducted by a descriptive research method, was conducted among educational managers by surveying the whole population. To measure the variables two questionnaires were applied, one for BM and the other for sustainable effective organization. The results showed that organizational effectiveness can be predicted by BM and there is a direct and meaningful relationship between the degree of organizational effectiveness and managers' attitude in terms of BM. Moreover, two of four of MB indicators had a direct and meaningful correlation with organizational effectiveness. According to the findings, applying Breakthrough Management (BM) can help organizations to make optimum use of their resources when they encounter with any unpredicted problems and also help personnel to achieve new values considering their past experiences in order to improve organizational effectiveness.
