Abstract :

The purpose of the current research is to identify the components of empowerment strategy, transformational leadership and Job Involvement to be used in the strategic integrated model of human resource empowerment in water and wastewater companies of West and East Azarbaijan provinces based on the meta-synthesis approach. Based on the review of the basics and background of the researches, it can be seen that most of these researches have been investigated separately, quantitatively, and correlationally. In other words, none of the conducted studies have used a comprehensive model in the process of empowering human resources, just like the leading research. This research is one of the first studies that can be used as a basis for the development and theoretical expansion of concepts related to the process of human resource empowerment, in the form of a strategic integrated model of human resource empowerment in organizations, especially industrial organizations such as water and wastewater companies in the field of application and research. In this research, qualitative meta-synthesis approach and Barroso and Sandelowski's method were used. In this way, the components related to the integrated model by analyzing domestic and foreign articles in a specific time frame (1392-1400) and (2013-2021) and using the opinion of experts (with experience in the field of water and wastewater industry) and based on The Critical Appraisal Skills Program was identified. In the following, the conceptual model resulting from the meta-synthesis method and the Critical Appraisal Skills Program were presented.
