The aim of this study was to design a model for the effectiveness of strategic thinking in the Ministry of Sports and Youth. The present research is based on data search, of mixed or qualitative type (qualitative and quantitative) and is in the field of correlation studies in terms of subject matter and in the field of applied research in terms of purpose; Also in terms of nature, method and control of variables is a descriptive research. The statistical population of the research in the qualitative part included all experts in the field of sports and in the quantitative part included all managers and employees of the Ministry of Sports and Youth. Qualitative sampling was performed in a targeted manner and snowball technique and interviews were continued until theoretical saturation was achieved (16 people). In the quantitative part, the sample size was calculated based on Morgan table at least 233 people who were selected by stratified random sampling. In the qualitative phase of the research, semi-structured interviews with experts were used to collect data, and in the quantitative phase, a researcher-made questionnaire based on qualitative phase data and interview analysis was performed using the three-stage Delphi fuzzy analysis method. used. Its reliability was confirmed by performing an experiment on 30 members of the research community and calculating the Cronbach's alpha coefficient. To analyze the data at the level of descriptive statistics from the table of frequency and frequency and at the level of inferential statistics in the qualitative part of the grounded theory technique and fuzzy Delphi method and in the quantitative part of exploratory factor analysis tests, Friedman ranking test and structural equation modeling Statistical software SPSS version 23 and Smart PLS 3 were performed. The results showed that there are a total of 65 components as indicators of strategic thinking in the Ministry of Sports and Youth, which can be reduced to 12 factors. Also, the findings showed that there is a significant difference between the factors affecting strategic thinking in the Ministry of Sports and Youth from the perspective of research samples. Finally, the model of factors affecting strategic thinking in the Ministry of Sports and Youth was designed based on the above 12 factors and its fit was confirmed by Q2, SRMR, NFI and Chi Squre indices.
