Abstract :
The present study examines and identifies the strategic issues of the ICT Research Institute as a public governance body that acts as an advisory arm. One of the most important problems in developing a strategic plan for public organizations using common models is its time consuming. In this research, an agile method for calculating strategic issues to formulate a strategic plan is presented. This research is an applied research with an analytical, exploratory and mixed approach. In the exploration section, the theme analysis method and the fuzzy Delphi analysis section have been used. First, by analyzing the qualitative data obtained from 53 experts in the field, staff, upstream organizations and customers of the ICT Research Institute, the strategic issues of the organization and the Ministry of ICT were identified and then prioritized by fuzzy Delphi method. The results indicate the priority of the following strategic issues: mission stability and transparency; plan, protocol and ICT research governance; agile and dynamic organizational structure; sustainable and fast financing, comprehensive human resource system, role-playing in solving the country's current problems.
