Navigating Change: Our Transformational Journey
Reimagine Education Group (REG) was founded in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in order to support schools as they took on distance and hybrid education. While much of our early work was in educational technology and social-emotional learning, we quickly started to work with schools on DEI, belonging, and social justice in addition to strategic planning, change management, and leadership development. While REG initially set out to support schools, we quickly started to engage with organizations of all sizes, stages of growth, and fields/industries that are dedicated to social impact.
REG is a team of experienced and passionate education management consultants who have dedicated their lives to improving student outcomes by providing transformative professional learning for educators. Leading this team of changemakers are Sean Kreyling and Namita Tolia, who have a combined 35 years of experience supporting adults to learn and grow in schools, non-profits, and for-profit organizations.
