Abstract
The present study aimed to provide a model for decentralized management in education. The research approach was qualitative and based on data theory. Twenty-three people with experience in the field of study (specializing in educational management from both education and higher education) were selected through purposeful sampling and participated in the research interview process. The reliability of the interviews was confirmed by in-subject agreement. The collected data were analyzed by themes and analyzed using open, selective and axial coding system in the basis of data theorization method (according to Strauss and Cobin approach). The results of the study showed that the central categories of decentralized management including strategic planning, coaching, evaluation, and decentralized causal factors including organizational culture, organizational structure and professional competence, and continuous organizational learning, variability and career aspiration were identified. they got.. The present study also identified the factors affecting decentralized management and identified the dimensions of organizational development, continuous learning and job aspiration. This shows that decentralized management can lead to the development and improvement of the education organization, and on the other hand, all education stakeholders learn to be responsible for their own learning. This accelerates and facilitates work, and in addition to motivation, it contributes to the passion for work.
