Working with Sarala

I work with women in tech (technical leads, Staff Engineers, managers, Senior Managers, Directors, Senior Directors) who are stuck below the next level and ready to do the work to break through.

My clients come to me at moments like these:
– Just passed over for a promotion they expected to land
– Told repeatedly that they are “almost ready” without specifics on what’s missing
– Strong technical contributors considering the step into formal leadership
– Stuck below Director or Senior Director despite years of strong performance
– Questioning whether their current company will actually advance them

The work draws on 25 years of leading global engineering teams at Siemens and IBM, much of it spent inside the rooms where promotion decisions get made. I help my clients build the breadth of skills, visibility, and strategic clarity to advance, whether that means promotion at their current company or a strategic move to another one.

I do not guarantee promotions. I do give you the foundational tools, the diagnostic frameworks, and the insider perspective to advance with intention.
