What People are Saying
"Few people have the ability to truly transform lives, and Dennis is one of them!
I first met Dennis around 12 years ago when he became my Operations Director. Quickly he became a leader I would do anything for. He has an amazing talent of making you feel like you are the only person that matters to him at that time and his full focus is given to you in the moment. He makes you understand your why and the positive impact you can have on others, even when you are at your lowest.
Quickly, he not only became my mentor but also a trusted friend. Although the distance we have now is geologically challenging, he always checks in on me and my family.
As both my business and personal mentor, his guidance has been nothing short of life-changing. His wisdom, strategic insight, and unwavering support have not only helped me grow professionally but have also shaped the way I approach challenges, leadership, and personal development. I still pass on the things he has taught me to this day.
Dennis has a rare ability to see potential where others see obstacles, and his mentorship has empowered me to push beyond my limits. His impact extends far beyond just me, his teachings have influenced the way I lead, coach, and develop those around me, including my family and friends, creating a ripple effect of growth and transformation. His structured approach and personable manner is a perfect blend.
I owe Dennis a lot and he will never truly understand the impact he makes, yet he will always be humble and claim he just pointed me in the right direction and unleashed the tools I already possessed.
I would 100% recommend Dennis and his coaching to anyone, whether they are looking for business guidance, personal development or someone to talk to, he is your go to guy."
"Dennis has been a great coach to me where I have enjoyed working with him on some challenges within both my professional and personal lives. He has an engaging personality and a fluid coaching style where he is able to quickly identify and explore your particular concerns in a way that allows you to think through practical solutions to help you to move beyond your current thinking.
Dennis was able to help me explore my underlying beliefs and the limitations that were impacting how I approached the decisions I needed to make to get me back on track on the things that mattered to me. He has continued to provide ongoing encouragement and empowerment in what I want to achieve.
I would recommend Dennis if you are looking for a coach who tailors his approach to you as a person and establishes the authenticity that allows you to work through the concerns you are experiencing and how to overcome these."
"Working with Dennis was a truly valuable experience for me as I stepped into a new role. His coaching helped me grow in confidence, better understand my strengths, and become more intentional in how I lead and serve the people around me.
Dennis has a way of asking the right questions and helping you see things from a new perspective. Through our sessions, I sharpened my focus, built stronger leadership habits, and gained tools that I now use every day with my members, my team, and within myself.
The experience set me on the right track in my role and reminded me that leadership is not just about what you accomplish, but how you support and uplift the people around you. I’m grateful for the guidance and the growth that came from working with him."
"We just had the most life-changing experience with Dennis and Tiger Tamers. Wow. Wow. Wow. We worked with a group at the Chamber of Commerce for an event, and he first led us through "Arrow Breaking," walking us through breaking past the things that are holding us back.
The next night, we did wood breaking—also an amazing experience—once again breaking past those thoughts and beliefs that no longer serve us.
Last, and probably the most transformative, was the "fire walk." What a mind-altering, spiritual experience. I can’t even describe how incredible it was. The "fire tenders" on his team were first-rate. My husband has been a fire tender, and he said they are the REAL DEAL.
Dennis, with his manner, professionalism, and skill, explained everything we needed to do, to know, and to fully understand—with patience, kindness, and a loving spirit. He is a true professional who puts his heart and soul into everything he does.
The highlight? The preparation before each "act," as Dennis explained. No, it’s not an act—rather an experience to break free, push through, and dig deep past the thoughts and beliefs holding you back from your greatest potential.
Thank you, Dennis! Very grateful!"
"Dennis is a leader and a teacher. He draws from extensive military and private sector experience at many levels to apply that experience with business tools (like Lean/SixSigma), building leaders and improving teams. He provides training on critical business tools and concepts while allowing space for employees to grow and own their results. He helps break down challenges with a focus on achievable actions, setting a foundation for steady progress."
"Dennis is a fantastic leadership speaker! He graciously shared his organizational leadership experience with our McLauchlan Leadership Fellows this past spring. His talk was organized, heartfelt, full of information, and inspiring to our MBA students in the program. Dennis talked openly and honestly about the challenges and opportunities of being a leader and shared the key principles and practices he relies on as a leader. We definitely want him back next year!"
"His coaching continues to be powerful, thought provoking and action biased.
He’s tapped into my motivations, and helped me think through a personal plan, stepping back and looking at where I am and where I want to be … Habit 7 … sharpening the saw.
I’m on track with my mental and physical health goals, my plans for travel with my wife, and preparing to re-enter the world of work once more.
Still loads to explore with Dennis, but wow, a great three weeks."
"I always learn something new - about myself, about what drives my reactions, and alternative ways to solve problems. Thank you, Dennis"
"Spending the day with Dennis Narlock and his Tiger Tamers was nothing short of transformational for our Mosquito Joe team. Dennis brought a powerful presence, grounded in authenticity and experience, that immediately connected with every member of our group.
Through stories, challenges, and moments of reflection, he led us through a high-impact experience centered on resiliency, embracing change, and the power of unified teamwork. His ability to simplify complex leadership lessons into actionable insights was inspiring — and exactly what our team needed.
Dennis doesn’t just talk about grit and growth — he lives it. His Tiger Tamers experience challenged my Mosquito Joe corporate team to lean into discomfort, trust each other more deeply, and recognize the strength that comes from vulnerability and shared purpose.
If you're looking to reignite your team's fire, sharpen their focus, and elevate their ability to adapt and thrive — Dennis is the one you want in your corner."
"Dennis is the real deal. He is an insightful and skillful coach who offers everyone in his formal and informal span of care help, support, and encouragement. His penchant for serving and supporting others is not limited to his role or work. It's what he does because this is simply who he is. It just comes out of him naturally and organically. His direct and down-to-earth approach to coaching, personal change, and organizational development is on point and powerful. I count it a privilege to work and study with Dennis. I am better man, leader, and business man because our paths crossed."
"Dennis is extremely knowledgeable, passionate and professional and empathetic. He also has a way of saying exactly what you needed to hear.
The focus I have found has allowed me to already accomplish more in a short time than I have in years."
"Dennis has a unique ability to flex each session to specifically address the needs of the day. He pulls from a large amount of techniques - we worked on visualization, journaling on goals, NLP, role playing and much more. I enjoyed his sense of humor and how genuine he was. I felt like I could trust him immediately. Dennis did a great job understanding my limitations, but also challenged me to practice skills in real life. After our coaching engagement, I now have realistic goals for the year along with the emotional resilience and practical skills to achieve them. "
"Dennis is everything I needed in a coach... warm, personable and supportive and - at the same time - pushing me to reach my goals. I'm very grateful."
"Dennis has strong intuition and well grounded confidence. He helped me into putting more attention on celebrating myself more, and do it intentionally"

"When I met Dennis I was a volunteer facilitator of Havening Techniques Trainers. I gave my time away, freely for something that changes lives; including my life. I was offered an opportunity to become a Trainer. With his laser focus on who I am, and with his visionary support, I made it a goal to become a Trainer. We met weekly as I met the challenges through the Trainers Program and of emerging into creating, offering and running my own programs. I stepped up to the podium. Thank you Dennis for all the ways you prompted me to reach this goal and launch my own programs."
