Trusted at the Point Where Leadership Decisions Matter
I work with organizations, boards, and leaders at critical moments—when a leadership decision carries real weight.
Whether preparing a high-potential leader for what’s next or supporting someone stepping into a larger role, my work is focused on one question:
Can this leader step in and handle what the role requires?
THE WORK
My work sits at the intersection of leadership readiness, performance, and organizational decision-making.
I partner with:
- Boards and senior leaders to prepare individuals for key roles and reduce risk in leadership transitions
- CEOs and executives stepping into broader scope and higher expectations
- High-potential leaders being evaluated for future leadership
This is not theoretical development.
It is practical, real-time work grounded in what is actually happening inside the organization—and inside the role.
Experience
I'm Dara Perreira, the founder of Sequel Professional Development.
My work is shaped by over two decades in human resources and leadership, working directly with organizations, executives, boards and leadership teams.
This includes:
- Advising leaders at multiple levels of an organization
- Supporting leadership transitions and succession considerations
- Working within complex organizational dynamics where decisions impact people, performance, and direction
I bring both an internal and external lens:
- Internal, through direct leadership and HR experience
- External, through advisory and coaching work across organizations
This combination allows me to see not just the individual—but the system they are operating within.
When Leadership Decisions Matter, Preparation Matters More
If you are preparing a leader for what’s next—or supporting someone stepping into a critical role—this work provides the support to ensure it is handled well.
