Abstract

The ultimate goal of the current qualitative research is to identify the dimensions and components of diagnosis in the religious holy places of Iran. The research process was carried out with a comprehensive combination of meta-synthesis and thematic analysis. The collection of theoretical data was done by library method and organizational data was collected through semi-structured interviews with selected experts using judgmental and snowball samplying until reaching theoretical saturation. In this research, the combination of 659 themes extracted from library data with practical themes derived from the ideas of experts led to the design of a diagnosis model consisting of four dimensions and 20 components. The four dimensions are pillars, management, functions and funds. In addition to strengthening the scientific and research bases related to the religious holy places, this article prevents the development of imposed and prescribed concepts and patterns to these organizations. The results of this research show the main advantage of the diagnosis model in a deeper understanding and better visualization of the components that make up the religious places. It explains operational applications of the model in change management and diagnosis of studied organizations.
