Mucerino Consulting

I've served as a high school and middle school principal, assistant superintendent, and superintendent for the past twenty-nine years. I am a research-practitioner. I have been a member of the California State University, Fullerton Department of Education faculty for the past fourteen years as a Superintendent in Residence, teaching doctoral level courses, supervising dissertations in practice, and serving on the Executive Committee for doctoral studies. My areas of expertise include strategic planning, governance, decision-making, leadership development and executive coaching, system analysis and reform, and performance management. As an experienced leader of leaders, I value building leadership capacity in my organizations by creating the conditions for leaders to succeed by providing them with the tools and support necessary to flourish in today's highly-charged and politicized education environment.

TESTIMONIALS



Blanca E. Rubio
Assemblymember, 48th District
“Dr. Mucerino has separated himself from all of the Superintendents who have come before him in my 27 years as a member of the School Board. He identified our needs. He worked with the entire Board and all stakeholder groups to develop a plan to meet those needs. Then he operationalized the plan. All of which he did effortlessly and seemingly within the blink of an eye."
Ken Bell, Board President
Duarte Unified School District

"As the representative for California's 48th District Assembly District, I support all of the school districts in the 48th District. As a former teacher and former school board member, I closely follow the work that each of my school districts are engaging in with great interest and pride. I am particularly proud of the work being conducted in the Duarte Unified School District, under the leadership of their superintendent, Dr. Allan Mucerino."
