Interviews were conducted with 28 people using criterion-based sampling method and 8 schools were observed in the areas under study using sequential sampling method. The Document of the Fundamental Evolution of Education and the Regulations for the selection and appointment of school administrators were also reviewed. The data was analyzed using thematic analysis. The characteristics of the school administrator as a knowledge leader were categorized into 3 main classes including: knowledge network builder, knowledge guardian and school knowledge flow facilitator, and 10 subcategories. The emergence of knowledge leaders in the schools under study requires the following criteria: development of a digital physical space in the school, financing and sufficient educational budget, development and training of school administrators for the role of knowledge leaders, reforming the conditions for the selection and appointment of school administrators, granting independence and freedom of action to school managers, scientific and practical directives and instructions. It is suggested that professional development programs for school administrators should be developed and implemented, and the renovation of the public space of classrooms and school libraries based on knowledge literature should have a place on the agenda of the Ministry of Education.

The research instruments were included three questionnaires: social capital, psychological capital and readiness for changing, which were distributed and collected after calculating validity (speciation analysis) and reliability (Cronbach's alpha). Research data were analyzed using one-sample t-test, Pearson's correlation's matrix and multivariate regression (structural equation model) and also Amos23 and Spss25 software. Findings showed that while the average dimension of social network was higher than the desired level, the rest of the dimensions of social capital and the average total of social capital was less than the desired level. The average of teacher’s psychological capital and all its dimensions was higher than desired. Examining the simultaneous role of social capital and psychological capital in predicting readiness for change, it was concluded that social capital loses its predictive power for readiness for changing (β= 0/07 & p= NS) and psychological capital have a positive and significant predictive power for readiness for change (β= 0/62 & p< 0/01). The output of this research can be use by managers, teachers and other staff in different domains to providing readiness ground for change by developing and strengthening the capacities of psychological capital.
