Ricky Cohen is not a billionaire. He doesn’t host a reality TV show, nor is he the CEO of Facebook. His office doesn’t overlook Madison Avenue, and he’s never publicly fired someone in a boardroom. But everything Ricky Cohen isn’t makes him who he is. Meet the new type of business savvy; the type that looks for success in more than positive quarterly results. Cohen was born into a preeminent New York retailing family; joining the company soon after graduating cum laude from New York University. Within a short period of time Cohen became CEO. Under his leadership, The Conway Organization was transformed into an industry leader and in just seven years, increased its annual sales fortyfold, from $4,000,000 to $175,000,000. With a new effort that began in 2005, Cohen broadened his focus into the real estate world and launched Conway Capital. In just three years, this new entity was co-managing a portfolio of over $300mm of real estate in the New York metropolitan area. But Cohen’s greatest returns come from the ‘people building business.’ To insure long-term profitability, Cohen trains his employees to think and act as entrepreneurs. Cohen’s workshops, which are modeled after his business practices, instill a sense of independence, creativity and risk-taking in every stakeholder. Attendees are empowered with perspectives that yield dramatic improvements in every measurable category of performance, including but not limited to: sales and revenue generation, expense management, shrink prevention, and employee retention. Cohen’s unconventional team of advisors, made up of the greatest thinkers and philosophers in history, paved the way for this ambitious, enterprising and unsurpassed approach to business. Industry leading companies, like JP Morgan Chase, have called on Cohen to share his workshops. National and regional corporations, City and State Universities, large non-profits, and new entrepreneurial efforts have invited Ricky to inspire and mentor their stakeholders. Even the United States Navy found great value in his unparalleled insights. With the unique ability to ‘speak to the individual in a room of a thousand people’, Cohen’s workshops yield results that can be monetized immediately and on an ongoing basis.
