There are a couple of options

 

For rows, you can use a summarize tool in concatenate mode

 

For columns, you can use a formula tool an then use a + between text fields to concatenate. For numeric fields you need to wrap with a ToString function.

 

If you have a sample of data and what you want to achieve happy to make a more concrete example
