Profile
Mary McKay has taught at Rady since 2011. Prior to that, she spent 15+ years teaching at both the School of Business Administration and School of Leadership and Education Sciences at the University of San Diego. In 1988, she founded an independent consulting firm focused on planning and infrastructure development, and later designed and launched a membership-based educational website. After a 10-year break from consulting, she returned to client work during the pandemic. Today, as the founding principal of McKay & McKay, she still enjoys occasional advisory roles developing leaders and their organizations.
McKay currently serves on the Undergraduate Curriculum Committee (UCC) and the Equity Diversity and Inclusion Committee (EDI) and has participated in numerous Rady-specific and University-wide teaching effectiveness programs and events. In 2016, she was honored with a Distinguished Teaching Award by the Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and in 2017, was featured in the series Behind the Lectern, published by the UCSD Guardian.
McKay has developed curriculum and instructional materials for numerous courses for the Center for Executive Education at Rady, and more recently designed Ireland’s Silicon Valley, a 5-week undergraduate global education experience for the University of California San Diego Global Seminar Program. She also developed the original curriculum and materials for MGT 18: Managing Diverse Teams, the only Rady undergraduate course that fulfills the campus-wide graduation requirement for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. In 2009, she published Instructor's Manual Training in Interpersonal Skills (5th ed.).
