Our Team
James E. 'Jim' McClellan
With over 38 years of educational experience, I believe I have something to share and owe it to myself to do so with the new young leaders of today. Educational Executive Consulting gives me the opportunity to remain close to my chosen profession and give back to those in need. I’ve never wondered if the glass was half empty or half full … I’ve always known, “you can always refill the glass”.

Wm. Clay Montgomery
Although retired, I believe that I can do more now than I ever could while “working”. I understand the difficulty that new educational leaders are facing and I personally take the responsibility of sharing, teaching, and training them to be successful leaders. It is my goal to make sure that the educational executives of today guide their districts down the right path. I believe in honest and sincere interaction and work tirelessly with clients to fulfill their needs.
