Oren Klaff
Best selling Author of Pitch Anything & Flip the Script, Investment banker, Private Equity fund manager
Oren Klaff is a bestselling author, investor, capital markets expert, and one of the world’s leading authorities on pitching, negotiation, and persuasion.
He is the author of Pitch Anything, the New York Times bestseller that has sold more than 1 million copies worldwide and introduced his widely adopted framework for presenting ideas, raising capital, negotiating, and closing high-stakes deals. His second book, Flip the Script, builds on those principles with a counterintuitive approach to persuasion: instead of trying to convince people to buy your idea, create the conditions for them to convince themselves.
But Oren’s expertise comes from years spent on the front lines of finance. As the Managing director of Intersection Capital, he has helped companies raise hundreds of millions of dollars and advised on transactions totaling more than $1 billion. Earlier in his career, he led more than 120 private finance engagements that raised more than $500 million for acquisitions, giving him experience across capital raising, M&A, corporate development, and investment banking.
Today, Oren combines that real-world financial experience with his work in behavioral psychology, negotiation, and persuasion. His frameworks have been used by entrepreneurs, executives, investors, sales teams, and Fortune 500 companies around the world.
Whether he’s raising capital, structuring a deal, negotiating with a billion-dollar company, or teaching someone how to control the frame in a high-stakes conversation, Oren’s approach is built around one idea: the person who controls the frame controls the deal.
