454: Dave Arch - Cold Reading Corporate Clients

454 banner.jpg

Dave Arch is a long time friend who resides in Omaha, Nebraska. Dave has pretty much done it all: school shows, illusion shows, motivational speaker, corporate trainer, counselor, trade show magic, and more. But over the past several years, Dave has been an Executive Leadership Coach for one of the largest privately held companies in Omaha.

Although he is a magician, he is not a psychic but has used “cold reading” with his corporate training. In that regard, he recently released a series of eBooks on Scientific Cold Reading . It is a completely different twist on cold reading in a “psychic reading” format. For more information, visit the website at Lybrary.com to learn more about Dave and his books and videos on cold reading corporate clients.

This is an extended clip from Dave Arch's magic keynote where he uses several of the effects taught in his "Tricks for Trainers" series
