Abstract
Shared decision making (or school-based management) has become a centerpiece of efforts across the nation to improve America's schools. This policy brief considers three questions in light of current research and practice of SBM:
1) What are the ideals and assumptions that underlie this form of governance structure?
2) What are the enabling conditions and barriers involved in its implementation?
3) What are the research findings of its effects on schools?
