Objective: This study aims to enhance strategic management in comprehensive universities in Iran by identifying the key components of an ambidextrous university model. This model strengthens dynamism, quality, and responsiveness to change through a balance between exploitation and exploration.
Research Method: A qualitative research design was employed, focusing on comprehensive universities in Iran. Data were collected through purposive semi-structured interviews with experienced academic managers in education and research. Theoretical saturation was achieved after 14 interviews. Thematic analysis was used to interpret the data, and the findings were validated through triangulation with literature, acceptable test-retest reliability, and inter-coder agreement.
Findings: Thematic analysis revealed six main themes (with 14 sub-themes) in the exploitation domain: university policies, academic structures, university-industry interaction, development of education and research, finance and budgeting, and academic culture. In the exploration domain, six main themes (with 12 sub-themes) were identified: education and assessment, futuristic structures and technologies, financial resources, innovative policies and culture, strategic management, and future-oriented research. Additionally, six strategic approaches for balancing exploitation and exploration were categorized under two main themes: (1) policy and evaluation, and (2) resources and structure. These results were synthesized into an exploratory model.
Conclusion: The proposed ambidextrous university model integrates operational efficiency with forward-looking innovation, offering a strategic framework for transitioning to fifth-generation universities. By balancing exploitation and exploration, it facilitates strategic decision-making and enhances performance optimization in university management.
