Summary:This paper presents the features, rationale and theoretical support to use Pettigrew's (1987) model of processual analysis as an initial guide to explore organizational decision-making in a private education institution. Processual analysis suggests that case studies conducted on organizational decision-making should not be concentrated on the process itself, but issues encountered during decision-making and perceptions of teachers as decision-makers. As a result of further exploration, both theoretical and conceptual frameworks were expanded from the model through other support of literature review and initial participant observation surrounding the researched organization.
