Then, three selective codes were explained by merging the central codes with more semantic affinity, and finally, the research paradigm model was designed. Since company employees can experience conflict of interest situations based on the nature of their job, understanding its instance can be considered a tool to reduce disorder.

According to the problem of the present study, the strategy of thematic analysis was used and since in this study we are trying to discover the themes of empowering citizens, the purpose of the research is exploratory and the method of data collection is through study and review of documents. According to the data analysis, 154 initial codes, 38 main themes and eight organizing themes were formed and the research findings were presented in the form of a conceptual model that shows the network relationship between different themes. The results indicate that the empowerment of citizens has multiple dimensions and in order to improve and increase citizen participation in public administration, these multiple dimensions in economic, social, legal, political, environmental, cultural and administrative policies should be considered by policy makers and Public Managers.
