CoachMatching is a Cape Town based organisation, with a large national pool of highly experienced coaches from a variety of disciplines, backgrounds and coaching schools.

We have partnered with associate companies to form Strategic Alliances throughout South Africa and this further enables us to deliver national and regional bespoke solutions for our clients.

“My experience of working with CoachMatching has been wonderful. I have found the approach taken to be robust, transparent, informed by best practice and collaborative. There is a high level of focus on the coaching team's learning and development together with a strong orientation towards building a brand that is reputable, reliable and delivers excellence in the field. I have also experienced the approach to assessing, matching and delivering to the client's needs to be professional, thorough and highly effective. It is a win win for all.”

CoachMatching reflects Susi Astengo’s 20+ years experience of working with clients, conducting market research and her ability to translate this into a value proposition that combines her pragmatic approach with high professional standards.
Susi says: “over the years I have been lucky enough to have worked with some truly inspirational people. CoachMatching is a result of all that I have gained from them.”

Susi has been a senior management and leadership coach and consultant with a full range of experiences working with blue chip Fortune 500 companies to independent start-ups. She combines a scientific approach with intuition and experience in the areas of behavioural assessment, leadership and organisation design.

Susi started her career in banking and finance and quickly moved into training and development with British Airways where she was responsible for training flight and cabin crew in a wide variety of interpersonal, supervisory and team skills.
She then successfully started her own business as a training consultant and worked exclusively for London Underground for two years on a two tier leadership development programme. Both the company and the programme are still operative in the UK.

In 1994 Susi joined an international human resource consultancy and worked with fortune 500 companies around the world, consulting on recruitment and selection, training and development, at all levels, and organisational systems and design.

In 2003 Susi moved to Cape Town and worked as a freelance consultant with Deloitte providing leadership coaching and training, and business development, whilst establishing her own HR consultancy, before establishing Ekin Astengo Coaching in 2007. She and her then partner Simon Ekin decided to focus on different offerings and EAC evolved into CoachMatching in March 2009.

CoachMatching is a member of both the International Coach Federation (ICF), and Coaches and Mentors of South Africa (COMENSA).
