The important issue before the Knowledge Management deployment is to identify and prioritize the factors affect the level of organizational readiness for implementing the project. To adopt Knowledge Management in Iranian organizatiosn, effective implementation factors of Knowledge Management need to be identified. Hence, the main aim of this study, in order to establish an integrated system of Knowledge Management, is to propose a model to assess the level of readiness for Knowledge Management in Iranian organizations. This research consists of two parts; the first is a combination of quantitative methods, and the second is a discussion about exploratory interviews with experts on Knowledge Management. Then, the obtained data of these interviews are coded and classified. Finally, the initial model of this research with 8 main components and 43 sub-components is designed. The research tool for this part is a questionnaire with 55 questions. The internal consistencies of the answers to the questionnaire are measured by Cronbach's alpha coefficient, 0.97. In this study, the coefficient R2 structural model of endogenous latent variables (dependent) of the model, with the top 0.67 is approved as a strong model. GOF indicators are tested to assess and measure both structural and measurement model together with the amount of 0.87 which confirms the overall fitness model pretty well. The results are analyzed by using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and the proposed model with 8 dimensions is approved. The main components include organizational culture, organizational structure, technology, leadership, human resources, competitive position, and social conditions.

Discussion and The results of hypothesis testing using t-test and path coefficients (β) showed that 9 factors have a positive and significant relationship with strategic knowledge management.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the knowledge structure in Entrepreneurship research using co-word analysis, to identify top authors in the field by number of articles, number of citations, and h-index, and to visualize the international collaboration network in it.
