Abstract	The strategies for school based management and shared decision making are seldom studied together. A written survey administered to practitioners currently using one or both of the strategies provides information for the implementation of shared decision making. Methodological limitations include a sample of 230 site personnel with a response rate of 30 percent. Findings identify eight barriers, institutional and noninstitutional, to changing traditional behavior. Four recommendations are offered for the implementation of shared decision making; they are transformation of authority, collaboration, professional development, and commitment. Results indicate that the implementation of shared decision making in school-based management requires fundamental changes in traditional behavior. Appendices provide a list of training resources, a list of respondents, and survey summary data and graphs. (25 references) (LMI)
