The purpose of this research was designing casual model of colluding toxic followership using causal mapping basen on the experiences of Kerman public organizations’ experts. In this regard, after studying the literature and identifying 16 effective factors on colluding toxic followership, a half-closed questionnaire was developed based on Likert scale and distributed among 31 experts using concept and snowball sampling. In order to screen data average fuzzy analysis was used, so the result caused to omission of a factor. Then, a matrix-structure questionnaire was designed so that data be collected based on causality among factors. In the following, after gaining confidence about lack of a significant relationship between expertise indexes and complexity and domain indexes of cognitive maps and also examining similarities of experts cognitive maps, which showed that personal features and experts membership in various organizations couldn’t create a significant difference between experts maps, the experts consentaneous map based on relatively strong relations among factors was extracted. The result led to a model that based on it the effective process factors included forthright ambitions, conservative egoism, and hypocritical adaptability of colluders, colluders greed, and finally leader- follower consistency and accommodation.

Keywords: followership, toxic followership, toxic leadership, colluders, causal mapping.
