The main question relates to the how implementation participative decision making at MAS Darus Sholah Jember and its impact on school performance.

This research discusses Participatory Decision Making by school leaders in Madrasah Aliyah Swasta (MAS) Darus Sholah Jember in order to improve the administration of the school by involving all participants. The primary question is how participatory decision-making is taken at. According to the research findings, four major strategies are used to implement participatory decision-making: brainstorming, nominal group technique (NGT), quality circles, and the Delphi technique. Brainstorming and NGT are employed more extensively since they require direct input from the school community. Quality circles are also important for preserving the long-term quality of learning. However, the Delphi technique is less commonly used because to time and budget restrictions. The use of these strategies increases teacher involvement, promotes innovation, and fosters a positive working atmosphere. This study helps by providing a paradigm of participatory decision-making that can be used in other madrasahs. By taking into account the engagement of numerous stakeholders, this study contributes to the development of democratic and effective leadership in Indonesian education.
