WHO WE ARE
Picture

Frederick Buskey
​
Founder and Lead Consultant

My mission is to help busy leaders learn to act strategically each day. One of the big ironies of leadership is that while we look to leaders for vision and inspiration, most are too busy managing day-to-day operations to actually move the organization towards the vision. After observing the same situation with leaders in organizations across multiple industries, I decided to tackle this issue head on and, in July 2018, founded Strategic Leadership Consulting, LLC.
 
I have been a teacher, coach, and change agent for over 30 years. Most recently, I invested 13 years developing and coordinating training programs for aspiring school leaders at Clemson University (2013-2019) and Western Carolina University (2006-2013). At both schools, I led innovative redesigns of old programs. During this time, I’ve written extensively on leadership development, ethics, and the dark side of leadership, in both scholarly and practitioner journals.
My unique blend of scholarly training (EdD in Organizational Leadership from Bowling Green State University), athletic coaching, P-12 teaching and administration (17 years), and public and private sector leadership development (20+ years) provide me with multiple perspectives and insight into the fundamental truths of leadership.
 
My current work focuses on combining what research tells us about leading organizations with the realities faced by real people in real organizations. I distill complex ideas into simple actionable principles. My most recent/current projects include:
  • Leading and facilitating the design of Now + Next, a leadership model for non-profit, health care, and governmental leaders in Western North Carolina 
  • Implementing strategic leadership practices across all levels (district, school, classroom) 
  • Collaboratively designing and implementing a streamlined coaching model for school leaders
  • APEx, an online professional development resource for assistant principals
  • Writing and producing The Assistant Principal Podcast
  • Publication of a daily 300-word leadership email (subscribe here).

Mara Buskey
Inclusion Strategist

As the inclusion strategist for SLC, I strive to create more inclusive, accessible, and intergenerational content through different spaces and mediums. 

With a BA in Gender, Women’s, and Sexuality Studies and minors in Spanish and Global Studies from Appalachian State University, I began recognizing a need for entrepreneurs to be supported with a 360 degree perspective. Gaining experience from working with Frederick and SLC, I started my own business that is focused on helping solo entrepreneurs overcome isolation and overwhelm. Through collaboration, I provide support, accountability, and strategies to help business owners stay organized, achieve goals, and rediscover the joy in their business.
