Abstract
The main objective of this study was to design a model of the drivers for enhancing the psychological empowerment of human resources in public organizations using the meta-synthesis method. The present study followed the interpretive-constructivist paradigm and was based on a qualitative approach with an inductive logic. This research was applied in nature and employed the documentary and meta-synthesis methods. To identify the main drivers of the model, the seven-step framework of Sandelowski and Barroso (2007) was used. The statistical population included studies published between 2016 and 2026 AD and 1395 to 1405 SH, which were collected from valid scientific databases. Out of 815 identified articles, after screening by title, abstract, and full text and applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 51 articles were selected as final articles based on quality assessment using the CASP checklist. The obtained data were analyzed using content analysis and MAXQDA 24 software. The findings showed that 51 extracted open codes were organized into 22 sub-themes and 8 main themes, including enrichment of endogenous psychological resources, development of developmental leadership models, management of digital transformation processes, human resource meritocracy,
