Former Goldman Sachs Exec Turned Matchmaker Now Booking Speaking Engagements on Networking & Relationship Building

Elite Matchmaker and Ex-Goldman Exec Shares How Emotional Intelligence Fuels Career and Relationship Growth

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, UNITED STATES, May 30, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- From Wall Street to soulmates, executive-turned-matchmaker Cassindy Chao is proving that networking and matchmaking have more in common than most people think. Drawing on her career as a Goldman Sachs investment banker and C-suite leader—combined with her current role as an elite relationship coach and matchmaker—Cassindy is now available for speaking engagements and workshops for corporate, professional, and leadership audiences.
Her core message?

The way we build romantic relationships isn’t so different from how we build professional ones. And most people—especially ambitious professionals—are doing both wrong.

Cassindy speaks with clarity, warmth, and candor on the intersection of connection, identity, and emotional intelligence in business. Her talks help high performers ditch outdated networking scripts, build meaningful relationships, and lead with purpose.
Featured Topics Include:

• “The Mistakes People Make When Trying to Be Authentic”
 Why oversharing, performing vulnerability, and packaging “humility” often backfire—and what real authenticity looks like.



• “Stop Treating Networking Like a Transaction”
 Learn how to create connection that lasts, deepen trust quickly, and stand out with generosity—not just credentials.



• “Why Your Résumé Won’t Build Relationships (But Curiosity Will)”
 A powerful session on asking better questions, creating emotional resonance, and building a magnetic executive presence.



• “The Silent Struggles of Asian Professionals in Executive Spaces”
 A culturally attuned keynote that unpacks the unspoken challenges Asian leaders face—like managing cultural humility while building personal visibility, and the pressure to perform “model minority” success without true relational support.



Cassindy’s lens is unique: she blends data-driven insights from elite matchmaking with lessons from decades in high-stakes leadership environments. Her sessions are especially impactful for ERGs, leadership offsites, DEI programming, and women’s leadership summits.

“Connection is the currency of leadership. And yet, most people are networking for attention, not relationships. I help them flip that script.” — Cassindy Chao

Cassindy has spoken at the Harvard Club of NY, for the Stanford Club in HK, Chief, Ascend Global Leaders and the National Association of Asian American Professionals and more.
