Russo's Achievements: Commendable Under Hostile Conditions
27 Jun 2003
Format:Paperback
Sarina Russo's book is about leadership and much more. Russo takes us on a fascinating journey of discovery, daunting challenges and achievements against the odds. Her attitude is characterized by the absence of anger and a healthy, passionate, and relentlessly positive outlook on life. This is commendable considering the extreme suffering she endured throughout her youth and early adulthood, from parents and employers alike. Sarina is a living proof that failure can be rich in lessons for those who are mission driven, creative and who never give up building allies and trust, even among adversaries. This book should be a compulsory reading for executives, educators, business and high-school students. It provides an inspiring role model for current and emerging generations of leaders, and everyone frustrated and unfairly treated, who may wish to give up her or his dream. The stories that have propelled many books to The New York Times list of bestsellers pale in comparison with the authentic, credible and humane journey of Sarina Russo. Easy to read for everyone, rich in content and anecdotes, Meet Me At The Top is bound to reach the top of the charts here in North America as it did in Australia.

An inspiration for All Women and An Eye Opener for Me
16 July 2003
Format:Paperback
This book speaks louder and stronger than any motivational book I have read. It was an eye opener for me. I hope to re-read it again to absorb all the lessons in it. Sarina Russo is truly an inspiration for all women fighting for equal rights and justice. I have a very small suggestion. The author could actually be a guiding star for millions of helpless students and women whose life might improve through an online counseling portal.

She made herself for the top
21 July 2003
Format:Paperback
This book gives us an insight in the way a leader think an act. Following the chronological events of Miss Russo life we can see that those qualities, that are so much looked for these days, are not limited to over confident specialist. They seems to come first right from the heart and the soul. Growth is assured by a very high dedication to principals that must be deeply encrusted in the person. Miss Russo is a model of that determination, backup by a clear sense of what she should and can do. Events, knowledge, money are important but at least it is refreshing to see that work, help, family and friendship can still be a way to realized dreams.
The book is not an how-to, nor it is a lecture on business and management principles. It is a story, a very good one, it must be read.
