Description: "Participatory management means that everyone affected by decisions has a voice in making those decisions. In higher education, administrators are increasingly expected to consult with representatives of campus groups--faculty, other administrators, advisory board members, policy council representatives, and others--yet are often unsure how they can most productively involve them in the decision-making team. This new book fills the need for a detailed, step-by-step guide to participatory management, showing how it can be made to work effectively on a day-to-day basis." -- Book Jacket.
