"The People. What Else Is There?"
Wilkens, Edward R.
Educational Leadership, v53 n4 p76-78 Dec-Jan 1995-96
Although shared decision making wasn't always Harold Boyden's first priority during his 30 years as a Vermont district leader, he always sought out his staff's ideas. Boyden believes in picking his fights, knowing when to compromise, and delegating when appropriate. He prefers to spread out budgeting ownership, responsibility, and commitment. (MLH)
