The statistical population consisted of 55 ministries experts and some of its affiliated organizations in strategic affairs and knowledge management, 47 of them responded to the questionnaire, which conformed to the standard set out in the Cochrane Table. The findings of the research show that, from the respondents' point of view, the "humanistic approach" has a greater effect on the factors and strategic control system than the "technology-oriented approach". This implies the role and importance of tacit knowledge and the ability to absorb and analyze individual and organizational performance in a more strategic control system. Therefore, in designing strategies, programs, and building knowledge management infrastructures in order to influence and improve the strategic control system, attention and development of factors that help increase the absorption capacity and organizational analysis should be prioritized and attention to factors The technology is next time.
