Abstract
The purpose of this study was to present a role model of personality development on the satisfaction of volunteers in sporting events. The statistical population of the study consisted of all 50 volunteer forces participating in Azerbaijan Cycling Tournament. Due to the small size of the statistical population, based on the integer sampling method, the entire statistical population was identified as the research sample. After the questionnaires were distributed, 43 were finally analyzed. Results showed that personality development had a significant effect on the satisfaction of volunteers in sporting events. It was found that personality development made volunteers more satisfied attending sporting events. Therefore, it is suggested that sport events managers, while considering personality development, pave the way for volunteer personality development at sporting events by delegating important activities and tasks to an individual's ability
