Despite the presence of women in higher education and qualification levels of public decency, a small number of women have been appointed to management positions; therefore, they are less powerful than men in organizational decision-making processes. In this research, organizational culture and consequently gender as the most important factor influencing corporate power distribution is considered. The study is descriptive correlational. The target population included all staff of Ferdowsi University of Mashhad (1250 subjects). The sample size was selected to be 300. A questionnaire was used to collect the required data; the results showed that there is a significant relationship between organizational culture and distribution of power. Organizational culture predicts the distribution of power within the organization. There was a significant difference in terms of distribution of power between the two groups. According to the mean values of the two groups of men and women, it can be concluded that distribution of power for men in the organization is significantly more compared to women. .
