Praise for Bet on Me

"Annette Verschuren is one of Canada’s most successful business leaders, so it’s not surprising that this book is an insightful guide into how to build a better business and career. What was delightfully surprising is how funny, touching, smart and personal it is. A must-read for anyone who wants some of the secrets to living a fuller life."
Amanda Lang
Bloomberg TV Canada and best selling author of the power of why
"Move over, Horatio Alger. There’s a new girl in town! Annette Verschuren’s rags to riches story is as gripping as any of Alger’s vintage heroes. It is a compelling read. Not only does it provide cookie crumbs to lead an ambitious entrepreneur to success but it also defines success in a way that is uncharacteristic of books of this genre. For Annette, success is more than economic achievement. It also includes civic engagement and contribution to humanity. It is a must-read for anybody, not necessarily for entrepreneurs, who wants to find purpose in life."
Honourable Frank McKenna
Deputy Chairman of the Toronto-Dominion Bank
“Annette Verschuren is a great Canadian leader. Having known her for more than three decades, I’ve long been an admirer of Annette’s exceptional leadership qualities, her entrepreneurial expertise and her commitment to the greater good.”
The Right Honourable David Johnston
Governor General of Canada, from the forward to Bet on Me
