Making shared governance work: a conceptual model.
Most of the nursing literature offers little substantive rationale for why Shared Governance works or how to evaluate it. This article presents a model of Shared Governance that is based on more than fifty research articles on participation in decision-making. It gives administrators an overview of why Shared Governance impacts satisfaction and organizational commitment. The model should facilitate both designing a Shared Governance system to fit a particular organization and evaluating that system.
