Studying the works of Iranian researchers in the field of management over recent years shows that strategic management is one of the respected areas with a significant growth. The aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive picture of this trend and to provide a valuable insight into the status of research in the field of strategic management trends in Iran. In this regard, 251 online works published over the period 2001- 2015 in internal science-research publications in the field of management have been investigated and evaluated. Results have been presented according to various criteria such as the subject of research, models and tools for strategic analysis, the method of data collection approaches, data analysis techniques, the composition and the way in which researchers collaborate and their research interests.
