This study examines the impact of strategic knowledge management on strategic ambidexterity among managers and experts of Iran's sports federations. The research is applied in nature and employs a descriptive-survey method for data collection. The statistical population comprises all managers and employees of Iran's sports federations. Federations were divided into two categories: team sports and individual sports. From each category, six federations were randomly selected. A total of 250 questionnaires were distributed, with 159 responses forming the final sample. Research tools included two standard questionnaires: the Strategic Knowledge Management Questionnaire (Lopez & Meroño-Cerdan, 2011) and the Strategic Ambidexterity Questionnaire (Jansen et al., 2009), with reliability coefficients of 0.73 and 0.78, respectively. Data were analyzed using SPSS 25 and LISREL 8.70 software. Results indicate that strategic knowledge management has a positive and significant impact on the strategic ambidexterity of sports federation employees. Furthermore, structured knowledge management exerts a positive and significant effect on strategic ambidexterity, while personal knowledge management does not have a significant impact. Additionally, strategic knowledge management positively and significantly influences the exploration and exploitation components. The findings underscore the importance of strategic knowledge management in enhancing the strategic capabilities of sports federations. These strategies can serve as a pathway for improving performance and fostering innovation within these organizations.
