The Like Switch: Book Review by Jeff Bush

By Jack Schafer

The book is written by a former FBI agent. He teaches tips on winning people over for spy purposes, but the tips are very good on winning people over for general friend-purposes. One of my favorite portions of the book speak about how to “cement” a relationship by encouraging the other person to speak. You do so by using the acronym LOVE: 

  • Listen
  • Observe
  • Vocalize 
  • Empathize  

The book has lots of good tips for interacting with others (some similarities with book How To Win Friends And Influence People). This book can help you with your kids, church people, friends, those you are witnessing to, and your marriage.
