How it began...
Hi, I'm Lisa Imel, the Founder & CEO of EdSolutions Consulting Group and Balanced Powerhouse.
With over 20 years of experience as an educational leader and entrepreneur, Ms. Imel embarked on her career as an educator to make a difference. That passion grew over the years and led Ms. Imel to found EdSolutions Consulting Group, an educational consultancy that focuses on creating transformative experiences for school districts and colleges. As a former teacher, principal, and curriculum coordinator, Lisa is a passionate advocate for educators and believes in delivering holistic and powerful experiences so that educators, students and families lead happier, healthier and more meaningful lives.
Due to her expertise in human potential and at the encouragement of colleagues, Ms. Imel founded Balanced Powerhouse, a personal and professional mentorship brand for high performing professionals that serves B2B and individual clients to prevent and deter burnout and lead successful lives without the sacrifice.
Some of Lisa's notable achievements include recognition as a school leader for her efforts in the arena of bullying prevention, being awarded the distinguished Fulbright Scholarship and selected for the Argentina Fulbright Principal Exchange, chosen as an Ohio Leadership Advisory Council Facilitator, appointed as a Trustee at St. Joseph Montessori School, and recognition as a Paul Harris Fellow by the Rotary Club of Cleveland.
Ms. Imel attended Bowling Green State University majoring in Secondary Education with minors in Political Science, History and Geography and earned a Master's of Educational Administration at The University of Toledo. She acquired her Principal and Superintendent Licensure at Ursuline College and Ohio University respectively.

Our district could not connect the dots for the various needs we had. Lisa has a visionary 'we can do anything we set our minds to' approach. Her ability to motivate our external and internal entities, her caring, professional approach and her ability to do more than she promised makes Lisa and ECG stand out from the rest.
