In the second stage, which had a quantitative approach and the goal was to identify and select a complex organization, a 21-item questionnaire was designed and its validity was confirmed by experts, and its reliability was confirmed by calculating Cronbach's alpha and distributed among 291 middle managers of the municipality. A one-sample, complex organization t-test was selected. In the next stage, which had a qualitative approach, a semi-structured interview was conducted with 18 experts who were selected by the snowball method, and the initial model of managers' competencies appropriate to any complexity was obtained. In the fourth stage, which had a quantitative approach, a questionnaire was designed based on the initial model and distributed among 5 experts by the Delphi method and after performing three round trip steps, the modified model was obtained. In the second phase of the research, which aimed to validate the modified model and had a quantitative approach, a questionnaire was designed based on the modified model. and distributed among 15 organizational experts, including municipal managers with at least a master's degree and a history of more than twenty-five years, and by calculating the relative content validity coefficient, the final model of managers' competence was developed for any complexity.

Hence, international competency models were initially surveyed to agree over a list of common competencies. Then, related academics and training officials were interviewed through Delphi method to reach a unanimous consensus based on the requirements of state-run companies (purposeful criterion sampling). To establish credibility of the findings, the model was submitted to the related experts three times to reach consensus on the final model. Based on the findings, training competencies for state-run enterprises may be categorized into foundational (effective communication, industry knowledge, technology industry, seeing the big picture) and technical (training needs analysis, instructional design, psychology of learning, training and development strategies, learning and performance assessment, learning technologies, training and development standards).

This applied research was conducted quantitatively to collect the data. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to determine the level of consensus among respondents on the priority of the proposed indicators for the competency of strategic managers. The relationship between the components of the metaheuristic model was determined by 122 senior and middle managers who were selected by random stratified sampling from the studied organizations: Tehran Governor's Office, Administrative and Recruitment Affairs Organization, Supreme Audit Court, Welfare Organization, Iran Health Insurance Organization (IHIO). Data were analyzed using the metaheuristic approach method based on genetic algorithm and decision tree, using the WEKA and RAPIDMINER software programs. Based on the results of the Shannon’s method, ethics earned the highest priority. Furthermore, 11 out of the 16 extracted factors affecting competency were selected as the optimal characteristics of strategic managers in state organizations using metaheuristic algorithms. These were knowledge competencies, skill competencies, basic competencies, psychological competencies, ethics, general competencies, interactions and communications, resource management, strategic thinking, transformism, and leadership. The findings also show that the most effective factors must be examined to identify and evaluate the competencies of strategic managers in state organizations. Manuscript profile -
