Sequel believes that successful turnarounds blend both art and science: art in the skill, experience, and judgment required to articulate and execute an effective turnaround strategy; and science in the diligent application of a structured framework supported by appropriate resources. Sequel seeks to integrate both art and science in implementing successful turnarounds, by combining:

• Speed. Sequel is ideally positioned to respond rapidly with an experienced turnaround team to assess a situation, create a concise plan of action, and implement strategies to preserve and maximize assets, minimize cash hemorrhaging, and ultimately revitalize a business.

• Committed Resources. Sequel brings a consortium of dedicated resources, including Strategic Vendors with preferred pricing/service programs, to help Sequel quickly generate cost savings and improved operating efficiencies.

• Independent Intermediary. Sequel functions as a responsible intermediary to validate strategies and mitigate destructive disputes between lenders/investors and management.

• Change Agent. Sequel provides a fresh perspective to challenge idiosyncrasies and serve as a change agent to transition from old habits and bad management practices.

• Targets and Accountability. Sequel reinvigorates a company by establishing achievable new targets and becoming accountable to those targets, reestablishing credibility as the basis for renewed morale and improved operating and financial performance.

• Leadership. Sequel inspires organizations to exceed expectations through leadership that articulates new visions while rebuilding business fundamentals.
