Dehghan questionnaire (2011) was used to measure the factors affecting organizational entrepreneurship. Professors and elites had already confirmed its validity and its reliability calculated to be 86 percent using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. SPSS software version 20 was used to analyze the data from descriptive statistics including the percentage frequency, mean and standard deviation and from inferential statistics variance analysis tests, chi-square test and Friedman test.
