Bibliometric analysis provides a critical review to identify the main themes and basic concepts of the subject. The data collection tool is the databases resulting from the search of WOS articles, and the analysis method is bibliometric tools using R. The number of reviewed articles is 2242 published in the period from 1991 to 2023. In the first step, the descriptive statistics of the extracted researches were stated, the growth rate of approximately 15% in this period of time indicates the importance of the research subject from the researchers' point of view. In the next step, the most influential people, works and publications were identified. In order to investigate contemporary trends and research flows in the field of dynamic capabilities, six clusters were obtained based on the clustering method through bibliographic pairing. The results of this clustering showed the centrality of knowledge in all these thought processes. After extracting and clustering the articles, the naming of each cluster was done based on the important parameters of the most frequent keywords of each, which are the seven components of "identifying, interpreting and exploiting opportunities", "creativity, innovation and agility", "leadership", "learning", " Organizational capitals, "adaptability" and "organizational culture" were identified.
