Win The Crowd: Unlock The Secrets Of Influence, Charisma, And Showmanshi p by Steve Cohen

Would You Like to Become More Commanding, Convincing, And Charismatic

In this book, Steve Cohen, master magician and star of the long-running Chamber Magic show in New York City, will reveal the secrets of all great showmen and magicians--how to persuade, influence, and charm, and ultimately accomplish the things you've always wanted to do. As Cohen writes, "You'll discover how to take over a room, read people, and build anticipation to a feverish pitch so people are burning to hear what you have to say."

Win the Crowd will teach you Steve Cohen's Maxims of Magic, simple rules you can use to take charge of practically any situation, from on-the-job disagreements to dating to important cocktail parties. The Maxims of Magic will wash away insecurities and hesitations, and replace them with confidence, poise, and leadership. What's more, Steve Cohen will show you:

• How to Create a Magic Moment. Capturing people's imaginations and attention so they listen carefully to every word you say.
• How to Command a Room. Showing everyone in the room that you are speaking right to them, making them all feel unique--and completely focused on you.
• How to Read People. Learning to sense what people are feeling and thinking as you speak, what they want from you, and how to make them feel like they are getting it.
• Misdirection. The most important trick in all of magic--getting inside people's heads, and directing what they are thinking at every minute.

When you strip away the sleight of hand tricks, magicians are essentially masters of attracting and holding attention and impressing audiences, exactly the psychological secrets you need to be successful in life and business.

Mr. Cohen has been a missionary to the Jewish people since 1976. He came to faith in 1973 through the prayerful witness of a Lutheran who took seriously the Biblical mandate to bring the Gospel to all people, including the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel. Cohen began as a volunteer with the international Jews For Jesus ministry in 1974 and joined their staff in 1976. He and his late wife Jan, led the mobile evangelistic drama team, The New Jerusalem Players from 1978 to 1980. He served as associate Director of the New York and Boston branches of Jews For Jesus and founded the Canadian branch in Toronto and the Ft. Lauderdale branch in Florida.

In 1980 Cohen began serving as a member of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS) Task Force on Witnessing to Jewish people, under Dr. Erv Kolb. When Dr. Kolb retired in 1989, Cohen took charge and the Task Force moved under the Board for Mission Services. They crafted a vision to establish the Apple of His Eye summer training events in New York City. These events gave potential missionary candidates a chance to test the waters of service.

In August of 1996, the Cohens left Jews For Jesus to devote full-time missionary service in the LCMS in St. Louis as the National Coordinator for Jewish missions.

Cohen has a Bachelors degree in Sociology from the University of Washington and a Masters in Missiology with emphasis in Judaic studies from Fuller School of World Missions. He has written and published dozens of broadsides (Gospel tracts used in street ministry). He has spoken in over 1,400 LCMS congregations as well as at the Great Commission Convocations. In 1992, he addressed the Synodical Convention in Pittsburgh and the need and urgency of including Jewish people in the mission of the church.

He has authored several articles for publication and six books. His first, Disowned, has received international attention. He has been on numerous radio and TV programs addressing the urgent need to bring the Gospel to the over 6 million unsaved Jewish people in North America and now in Israel.
His late wife, Jan, was a gifted vocalist and pianist with two degrees in music and vocal performance from the University of Washington in Seattle. She released a recording of Jewish Gospel music entitled, Proclaim His Name Exalted. The Cohen's were married in 1973 and have five children, two daughters-in-law, one son-in-law and four granddaughters. Jan lost her battle with Huntington's disease in 2007.
Steve was remarried in 2008 to Nancy (Heinricy), a Jewish believer in Jesus, who has extensive mission experience, serving in Russia, Israel and Paris, France. A former Pastor's wife, of 32 years, Nancy has three grown children, a son-in law and two daughters-in-law. She also has five grandchildren. Nancy is a published freelance journalist for periodicals and newspapers and speaks Russian and Hebrew. Mrs. Cohen volunteers with Apple of His Eye as a speaker and coordinator of Ladies Teas.

Wherever Mr. Cohen gives his presentation he prays that those in the church will take the initiative to invite their Jewish friends to come and consider Jesus from a Jewish perspective.
