About Us
History
EdAchievement Consulting is focused on helping educational organizations reach their goals. EdAchievement Consulting is led by Fernando Branch, who has 20 years of experience in education, including 10 years of leadership and teaching experience.
Mission
The mission of EdAchievement Consulting is to partner with school districts, educational organizations, school leaders and community organizations to provide executive coaching, anti-racist trainings, strategic thought partnership, collaboration, professional development, and support to help them achieve their strategic priorities. As an educational leader, I understand the pressures that leaders are under to move their organizations forward and to make a difference. I understand the importance of strategic planning and I also understand how lonely leadership can be.
The Work
EdAchievement is a partnering group that aims to produce meaningful results that you can depend on to support the success of your organization and the efficacy of the people doing the work. Leaders will get the benefit of working with a leader who has successfully:
- Led Teams Who Improved Academic Achievement

As they say, "a good plan well executed is better than a great plan on paper with poor execution." So often leaders spend so much time working on developing the perfect plan and time is lost planning for strong execution of the plan. By engaging EdAchievement, you will have strategic thought partnership to support with the strategic planning and school improvement planning process you are leading. In addition to helping support with the development of a narrow plan focused on achievement results, we will be available to help you think through what is needed for successful implementation of the plan. Finally, we will provide thought partnership to help you think through progress monitoring of the plan as well as communication about the progress of the work.

School leadership coaches help school leaders overcome obstacles and tap into their hidden strengths and talents in order to achieve success. Coaches are thinking partners who help leaders recognize where they are stuck, and how their dilemmas might be linked to personal barriers and blind spots.
