The statistical population of the study consisted of all faculty members of Birjand university at 2019-2020, which were selected by a simple random sampling method of 230 persons. In order to measure the Sustainable leadership Skills variable, a Researcher - Made Questionnaire with reliability of 93% , For measuring Co-creation Taherpour questionnaire with reliability of 95% and Cognition-based trust of the Yang & Mossholder  questionnaire was used with reliability of 80%. Content validity of the questionnaires was confirmed by experts and construct validity was confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis. the Reliability coefficient of the Questionnaires was investigated using Cronbach's Alpha coefficient.
Research Findings: Comparison of direct standard coefficients with indirect standard coefficients showed that Cognition-based trust plays a mediator role. According to the standard coefficient of 0/47 at the smaller error level than 0.01, Sustainable leadership Skills were the antecedents of Co-creation and also with a standard coefficient of 0.60 of Cognition-based trust. The Standardcoefficient of Cognition-based trust and Co-creation was also 0/24 and meaningful. Regarding to the proposed model, the relationships were studied and the model was fitted.
Limitations & Consequences: Not using qualitative methods in data collection such as interviews, the effects of the sample size and error rate, the prevalence of data collection, the lack of data collection, lack of studies and lack of cooperation of experts of higher education were among the limitation of this study
