Gustavo is not your average technology strategist. He not only understands technology, he understands how to simplify it and articulate so it can be harnessed by the masses. He’s a brilliant communicator who engages his audiences with humility, power and humour!

Howard Olsen
Owner, High Output Training Systems

Gustavo provided a 3 hour workshop that explained how the various social networks functioned, but more important was how to put in place strategy to use these tools to improve our businesses and take advantage of everything these networks have to offer. I thought I had a good knowledge about social networks, but Gustavo blew me out of the water with his knowledge of social networks.

Both of Gustavo’s morning feature and afternoon super sessions were extremely informative and made it easy for me to navigate my Linkedin profile and complete it. You kept your tech speak to a minimum and gave us very practical, easy to digest examples for Linkedin, Facebook and Twitter. I get it! And I’ve updated my Linkedin profile within three days of your presentation after ignoring it for a year.

Lynn Fraser

It is not often that delivery exceeds expectations – and you delivered beyond our expectations – wow – take care and again thank you – lots to digest.

I recently had the pleasure of hearing Gustavo’s presentation at the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers’ meeting on Saturday, March 20 and am very happy that I had the opportunity. He succinctly helped me to understand social media tools as each contributing to the whole package of relaying messages. I have been reading books and surfing the web for a while – after this meeting I am starting to have a better grasp of how to incorporate media to work to my advantage. Thank you Gustavo for breaking it down for me!

Gustavo’s presentation “Expanding Your Reach Using Social Media” at the Happen Burlington meeting December 3rd provided great insight into social media and Web2.0, its user profiles and its potential impacts on a number of key business areas including Advertising, Marketing, Sales and SMBs. Gustavo, in my opinion, is someone to watch and listen to.

Gustavo was a presenter at the CAPS Convention in Calgary. I had the privilege of listening and learning more about the tools of social media. He was a fine presenter who was well versed in the topic of Web 2.0 and was able to effectively communicate his knowledge, expertise and application of the social media around us. I would highly recommend Gustavo as a social media expert particularly Web 2.0.

Gustavo gives it all to his audience with confidence, enthusiasm, and perfect delivery: education, entertainment, and involvement. Where most speakers impart content relevancy, Gustavo makes it essential. He has inspired me, and other seasoned business leaders, to participate in, and use, advanced Social Media for professional and individual purposes. If reprising his December 3 2008 presentation, past attendees comments are: Highly Recommended, Not To Be Missed. Excellent work Gustavo! Very much appreciated.

Gus is a very talented technology entrepreneur. He has successfully shepherded several key technologies from incubation to market launch. One of that rare breed who can speak, think and act on a high level — at the same time — he has managed key client-facing programs, conceived of and championed new ideas (including several patents), and been an acclaimed speaker at industry events. I look forward to our next opportunity to work together!

Brian Galvin
Chief Technology Officer, Genesys, an Alcatel-Lucent Company

I had the pleasure of partnering with Gustavo during the design of a global health-care software suite and business offering. His depth of understanding as it relates to communication from both a literal and technical perspective was astounding. He was able to quickly interpret the value proposition we were passing to our user base and to immediately mentally bridge the business technology gap. From here he demonstrated areas where we could further enhance the platform through thought provoking communication strategies that leveraged technology to satisfy unmet customer need. His insights were priceless in this business endeavor. If you are wondering how you can expand or streamline your business capabilities through advanced communication strategies then I highly recommend you contact Mr. Garcia for a consult.

I have worked with Gustavo on a number of programs in my 5 years at Genesys – from seminars designed to promote specific solutions through to executive summits that position the organizations thought leadership. Gustavo contributed to the success of these programs on so many levels, most noticeably his ability to deliver captivating presentations on a varied range of subject material – straddling business and technical themes – while ensuring complete audience understanding. A rare quality in my experience! Gustavo’s personality and professionalism also shine through in all he does. While his presentations have been a big hit with our customers and prospects alike, he has also helped to foster ongoing relationships with these organizations by becoming a trusted adviser to them.

I would recommend Gus to anyone without hesitation.

Seb Reeve
Practice Leader - CIM Solutions, Sabio

Gustavo was passionate about his voice processing product line, bringing key IVR technologies into Genesys at a time when we really expanded across the breadth of the the Genesys suite. Gustavo was the go-to guy in the pre-sales process for the field and a top demo expert at our biggest tradeshows as a confident and engaging presenter. Gus did a great job “sweating the technology details” of product requirements, use cases, and product definitions as well, and was definitely one of the most creative product managers I’ve managed!
