Decision Making

See attached files.

1. Steps for Decision Making: After completing your reading and watching

the mini-lecture, write 2-4 well-developed paragraphs discussing the steps/
considerations educational leaders (regardless of role) might take to make
decisions. Provide evidence for your position from the course readings or
other scholarly evidence.

2. Your Role in Decision Making: Using your knowledge of the decision
making process, write a 3-5 page paper identifying some of the decisions that
you will be expected to make in your leadership role (i.e. budgeting, resource
allocation, scheduling, hiring, discipline, policy development, etc). Reflect on
which of these decisions would incorporate shared decision making and
which decisions would be made unilaterally. Provide a rationale for your
response. Be sure to articulate who would be involved in any shared
decisions and what their role would be. Again, provide a rationale for your
response. Support your answer with evidence from the course reading or
other scholarly sources. Be sure to cite and reference your sources in APA
format.
