"Dennis helped us wordsmith technology support offerings and tightly package these once undefined offerings, thereby allowing the team to sell and support using these newly identified services. "IT" is a hard topic to sell to businesses, in a way that the business owner client can understand. Dennis helped us carve out a new sector of small business clients by involving us in mission minded chats.
From packaging product offerings to ongoing strategic planning and management sessions, his utility as a consultant, trainer and organizational expert has proven to be invaluable the last (5) years."
Chris Dale, CEO of Apex Tech Group
"Dennis engaged us, and helped create language that our Dealer Clients understood. His language choice resonated in how to better present our services to folks resulting in more sales.

Phil Sura, VP of Unity Works Media
"I came to Dennis because I ran a successful consulting & book coaching practice that I wanted to take to the next level. Dennis helped me clarify my vision and showed me how to get there. He really "got" me and the resulting business plan reflected the unique gifts I have to offer in the marketplace to benefit my clients. At the same time, I knew I needed to work less hard, not more, because I now had a baby at home and wanted to spend more time with family. I now feel confident moving forward that I have a powerful plan to grow my business in incremental steps that wil create a big impact, and will actually give me more time with my family starting now."

"There are two different scenarios through which I know Dennis Rebelo. One is when I hired him for a team building leadership workshop for the administrators at our school. The other is as we continue to serve together on a task force charged with establishing a management training program. In both situations Dennis manifested his professionalism. Tapping into a pertinent and current knowledge base, Dennis formulates beneficial insights. His ability to foster trust, listen acutely, and question incisively coalesce for maximum impact."

"I agree that synthesizing is vital for the business entrepreneur. You also point out, rightly, that the entrepreneur needs to be able to communicate his/her synthesis to others. Borrowing a phrase from education, the entrepreneur needs to pedagogical knowledge about how to convey the synthesis to those with varying degrees of knowledge."
