In this research, using Sandlowski and Barroso’s seven-step Meta-Synthesis method, first, the relevant articles were selected and after reviewing them with the Thematic analysis method and during the necessary steps, the information is extracted and initial conceptual codes, indicators(selective­ codes), components(sub-themes) and dimensions(main themes) are identified and then, through a Delphi-based research process, they were subjected to a panel of selected experts for validation and promotion, and while receiving and applying their comments on removing or adding the required items, after 3 rounds, regarding the Kendall Correlation Coefficient, consensus was achieved and the final components of the strategic agility construct consisting of 4 main dimensions (Vision Clarity, Strategic Sensitivity, Strategic Responding and Collective Capabilities), 11 components and 34 indicators was identified.
