About Chris

Chris is author of two books on communication and empowerment. He is a world-renowned pitch coach, and has worked with entrepreneurs to promote their ideas and raise over $200 million in funding.

We were acquired by a Fortune 100 company in a HIGH eight-figure deal. It was a brutal series of pitches, and Chris was critical to our success.

Alberto Zamora

CEO of Movilizer
We raised over $2 million in our latest round. Chris was a cornerstone for our fundraising.

Mostafa Akbari

CEO of HoloBuilder
Attended Chris’ Influencing Skills workshop at LinkedIn. A year later I still use the skills daily.

Promeet Mansata

Manager at LinkedIn
We all enjoyed Chris’ workshop. Very interactive, loved every minute of it.

Shyla Klinder

President of Silicon Valley Product Management Association
Chris approaches communication from a totally different perspective than most scientists are used to. He taught us to shift from an information-oriented to an audience-focused communication style.

Ermelinda Porpiglia

President of Palo Alto Women in Science
Chris’ presentation on pitching was very valuable to our audience. As one participant related, “Focus on you, not I (which is what we often do!)”
