In recent decades, complexity and environmental turbulence have faced many challenges for organizations. In such a situation, for individuals and organizations, being successful means adapting to life through learning, and changing behavior patterns. But some scholars believe that this approach should simultaneously and balanced emphasize on the creation of new knowledge related to new products and services for emerging markets, as well as the utilization of competencies and capacities to improve existing products and services. A process is known as organizational ambidexterity. In this process, the ability to use of existing status (exploitation) and opportunities to grow and survive in the future (exploration) are two sides of the organization's move toward ambidexterity. The realization of ambidexterity in organizations requires the creation of a dynamic structure and internal flexibility which can empower organizations to face environmental changes so that they can anticipate environmental change and find appropriate strategies for dealing with them. This approach is addressed in the field of strategic management as strategic thinking.

Given the increasing competition between organizations and employees, paying attention to tasks and behaviors beyond them is one of the major concerns of organizations and their members. Unfortunately, extra roles in some organizations, especially international companies, are rare. Hence, Organizational Citizenship Behavior can increase the organization's ability to recruitment and retain qualified and efficient employees. On the other hand, it is necessary to note that Organizational Citizenship Behaviors do not occur in all situations, and some individual and organizational characteristics contribute to emerge and spread of these behaviors. Although attention to cultural intelligence has grown among international organizations in recent years, they need to consider variables such as cultural intelligence and the mediating role of Cultural Empathy in solving the problem of promoting extra role behavior. This lack of attention to the role of Cultural Intelligence as well as the empowerment role of Empathy is one of the gaps in international organizations. this research addresses the role of Cultural Empathy in improving Employee Citizenship Behaviors so that it can be determined that in order to promote extra role behaviors, people just needed to have high Cultural Intelligence, or both Cultural Intelligence and Cultural Empathy contribute to Citizenship Behavior.

Today human capital is considered as the main competitive advantage of organizations and it is also recognized as the key indicator of the success of organizations. In Iranian organizations, especially government agencies, there is a huge gap between employees and management and their demands. As a result of this gap, decisions are usually encountered with executive problems, as employees resist against decisions, and managers in turn do not trust employees and are reluctant to share decision making, all of which create a climate of mistrust in the organization. On the other hand, lack of employee’s motivation can have irreparable consequences for organizations, both in the short term and in the long run, and affect the quality of their products, or even give rise to issues such as turnover intention or absenteeism. In this regard, the issue of organizational commitment is also highly important because sometimes under the shadow of distrust, members of the organization intend to leave the organization and find another job. Therefore, a study of attitudes can offer valuable insights to managers to better understand of employees in the organization. In this context, organizational virtue has an important effects in organizations. The feeling of working in a virtue-based organization may encourage employees to do their jobs for something greater than material rewards or career progress including personal satisfaction or simply pleasure derived from implementation of a good job.
