Matteo Cassese helps leaders thrive in chaos and conflict.

Matteo is an executive and founder coach, a professional speaker, and a mythmaker. As a queer nerd passionate about mythology, technology, tarot, fitness, nature, and cars, he brings a unique perspective to his work.

Too many executives play it safe, avoiding conflict and following best practices. They’re stuck with no real plan, vision, or goal. Matteo shows a different path.

CHAOS, CONFLICT, CONFIDENCE

Matteo’s clients embrace what others avoid. Pushback, stalled projects, failed pitches – these aren’t setbacks. They’re fuel for growth.

The company can only go as far as you can take it. When you’re blocked, emotionally disconnected, or not expressing your full potential, you’re holding everyone back.

You must learn to thrive in chaos, enjoy conflict, and find confidence.

YOUR SHADOW PARTNER

When you have a bold strategy to change the world, you can’t be fearful of ruffling some feathers.

There’s no such thing as a polite troublemaker.

His superpower is creating a space for you to be vulnerable yet safe. He will act as your shadow partner, trusted sidekick, and behind-the-scenes co-creator in this space.

CAREER HIGHLIGHTS

Matteo never set out to become a coach; you made him one. With experience in corporate roles (Warner Bros.), consulting (Netflix), and teaching (Unilink), he found his way to coaching thousands of individuals across various industries. To be the best coach in the world, he brings his true self to every encounter with you.

In the past 2 decades, Matteo has been trusted by professionals at top corporates, startups, and scaleups. These are some of the companies that trusted him.

Matteo is a coach with a superpower: he creates a space for executives and founders to be vulnerable yet safe. In this space, he works on:

  • Confidence and overconfidence;
  • Fear, anxiety, and decision-making;
  • Resistance to change;
  • Money-related scarcity & abundance;
  • Conflict avoidance;
  • Burnout.

He never just coaches you. He acts as your shadow partner, trusted sidekick, and behind-the-scenes co-creator.

It’s time you partner up with Matteo.
