Purpose: Eligibility for promotion is a strategic concept in the development of today's organizations, because it signifies and highlights the existence of valuable human capital, and at the same time, causes the organization’s competitive advantage. Accordingly, the present study is conducted with the aim of designing a promotability model for managers, who are considered to be one of the most valuable and strategic group of human capital in state-owned organizations.
Methodology: As a mixed research, it was both qualitative and quantitative. In the qualitative part, the statistical population consisted of university professors in the fields of human resource management, organizational behavior management and strategic management, as well as expert managers of governmental organizations. Using the snowball sampling method and based on the principle of theoretical saturation, 16 subjects were selected. The required data in this section were collected by applying semi-structured interviews. Interpretive structural method was used for the modeling of managers’ promotion criteria. In this section, the statistical population consisted of managers and experts of governmental organizations in Khoramabad, 24 of whom were selected as a sample through targeted sampling method. Data required for modeling were collected by pairwise comparison questionnaires.
Findings: The research findings include indicators and components of a model for managers’ promotion. Thus, the model contains 14 indicators which fall into 4 levels. 
Originality: In addition to reducing the theoretical gap in the field under study, this study has provided a significant contribution and context for other researches to follow and develop it. Also, due to the lack of any similar study in the field, the results of this study, in addition to reducing the existing disagreement regarding promotion indicators, can be an appropriate device to develop strategies focusing on managers in governmental organizations.
