This study employed a descriptive research method, utilizing a survey strategy, and is applied in nature, matching the research objectives. Data analysis was conducted using a descriptive-analyltical method, in particular, theme analysis. Data collection was done in two ways: the library method and the field method, conducting semi-structured interviews with experts using snowball sampling technique as well as electronic questionnaires). In the data analysis, structural equation modeling analysis method and SPSS and Smart PLS software were used.The research context was Tehran and the statistical population of researchers included seven hundred people. However, due to the lack of knowledge about variance and the probability of success or failure of the variables and also the limited society, statistical formulas could not be used to estimate the sample size. Therefore, Morgan's sampling table was used. Based on the Morgan's table, the sample was 248 people. In this regard,339 electronic questionnaires were sent in cyberspace and 244 electronic questionnaires were received.After identifying the influential components and determining the extent and intensity of their impact, the researchers reached the six components along with a mediating variable of "e-government" and a moderating variable of "conflict of interest".The priority of effectiveness of the six components that were addressed in this research are as follows.1- Technological ecosystem creation policies, 2- Elite-oriented and merit-based administrative system policies, 3- Legal-political policies, 4- Learning organization strategy, structure, culture, knowledge, 5- Economic policies, and 6- Social policies- Cultural.
