I had never had a career coach before Deni. Her approach, system, and process have been positively life – not just career – changing. Her unique experience across industries, business stages and sizes, as well as her unique ‘accountable empathy’ make her unparalleled. The results of her clients are the proof.

I had spent many years looking for the right business coach and finally found exactly the right person for me in Deni Tato. Using the Enneagram as a tool has drastically changed how I lead my company and how we relate to our clients. We send every employee at Rebel Pilgrim through Deni’s assessment and nothing has done more to improve our company culture and mission.

Through many years of experience and deep wisdom, Deni has supercharged my career from a mid-level doer to an executive level strategist. My income has tripled in the 5 years I’ve worked with her. She keeps me disciplined, learning, and improving both personally and professionally. I hope more people can benefit from the work she is doing.

My work with Deni Tato over the last several years has provided me with a greater sense of focus and purpose resulting in successes both personally and professionally. I highly recommend Deni and her approach to help others to kick-start a renewed focus on their personal and professional goals.

Deni’s passion and drive to help others is inspiring. As my executive coach for the past five years, Deni has been an instrumental part of my personal and professional growth. Learning about my motivations through the enneagram has been extremely important in understanding how my strengths can become my weaknesses’. It has also allowed me to understand the motivations of my leadership team and how to most effectively interact with them. We all respond and are motivated in different ways. Through Deni’s coaching, I am able to understand my team and adjust my interactions with each of them to get better results. This has been a game-changer.

“Deni is one of a kind. Her business/analytical brain functions at 100%. But so does her creative brain, her spiritual brain, her social brain, her listening brain – all 100%. Never have I met someone whose brain fires on all cylinders. And the blessing for me (and you) is that Deni has chosen to use her many gifts as a professional tide raiser/game changer for others.”
