ABOUT US
Why Foveo is at the Heart of What We Do
The name Foveo comes from Latin, meaning to foster, nurture, cherish, support, and cultivate.
It’s more than a name—it’s the way I work. Every project is a partnership built on trust, thoughtful strategy, and the shared goal of creating an exceptional journey for families.
Maryanne
At Foveo Consulting, this meaning shapes everything we do. We guide schools through transformation with care, fostering meaningful engagement and nurturing sustainable success. Our work is never about quick fixes or one-size-fits-all templates; it’s about building the systems, strategies, and skills that help your team thrive long after our work together is complete.
Our History
After nearly a decade of working with international and independent schools worldwide, Maryanne Lechleiter launched Foveo Consulting (formerly Maryanne Lechleiter Consulting) in early 2024.
We partner with school marketing, communications, and admissions teams to transform the parent experience by streamlining technology use, redefining internal processes, implementing automation, and crafting strategic, meaningful communications. The result? A family experience that drives inquiries, enrollment, retention, and long-term community engagement.
My Belief
I believe schools create exceptional experiences for parents when they harness the efficiencies of technology, the power of human interaction, and the courage to explore new ideas.
This belief drives every project, conversation, and solution I create. Whether it's streamlining your admissions process, refining your communications, or building systems that save your team time and energy.
What We Do
We partner with international and independent schools to strengthen marketing, communications, and admissions functions, helping you attract, enroll, and retain families your school is best suited to serve.
Three ways to work with us:
- Project-Based Support: Targeted solutions to address a specific goal, challenge, or initiative.
- Retention-Based Partnerships: Ongoing collaboration to keep your marketing and admissions strategies moving forward.
- Consulting & Professional Development: Coaching, training, and thought partnership for individuals and teams.
How We Work
Just as the name Foveo suggests, our approach is rooted in thoughtful strategy, purposeful action, and lasting impact.
We work with:
- Care: Listening first to understand your school’s unique culture, challenges, and opportunities.
- Expertise: Bringing years of experience in school marketing, admissions, and communications to deliver practical, tailored solutions.
- Collaboration: Partnering closely with your team so the work is sustainable and builds your capacity.
- Sustainability: Designing systems and strategies that continue delivering value well beyond our engagement.
