Abstract

One of the most important issues in any country and organization is the issue of control, which is referred to as strategic control in strategic management. What is most needed today in strategic and macro policies is a strategic control model that addresses different aspects of the control problem and can control strategic points. Different models have been designed to date in the field of strategic control. In the present study, 22 available strategic designed control models were studied to obtain a hybrid model for strategic control at macro level. Models were selected and studied using the Hyperlink method, which has seven basic steps. Out of 22 investigated models, 129 components were identified and finally a comprehensive hybrid model, which is a systematic model, was presented. This model has inputs, processes, outputs, outputs and feedbacks, and each part of the system has its own subsets that are expressed in the final model.
