Abstract: This study aims at determining the level of practicing knowledge management processes and the effectiveness level of administrative decisions made by the schools’ principals in Ma’an Governorate, as well as determining the nature of the relationship between practicing knowledge management processes and the effectiveness level of making administrative decisions. A sample consisting of 120 school principals was randomly chosen.The study found that the levels of practicing knowledge management by the school principals in Ma’an Governorate were all high and ranged between 4.28-4.52. The results also showed that the arithmetic means for the effectiveness level of the administrative decisions made by school principals in Ma’an Governorate ranged between 4.33-4.75 with high practicing level. Moreover, there is a statistically significant relationship between the effectiveness level of administrative decision-making on the one hand and the fields of knowledge management processes on the other hand. There are also statistically significant differences between the arithmetic means of the (High Diploma) estimates on the one hand, and the arithmetic means of the (Bachelor degree) estimates on the other hand, regarding the field “transferring and using knowledge” in favor of the (High Diploma). The same goes for the (Bachelor degree) estimates on the one hand, and the (Master degree) estimates on the other hand in favor of the (Master degree).
