Maid to Made: How a Domestic Helper Beat the Odds and Became a CEO

A story of a hardworking Filipina who turned her life from "Maid to Made". The Life of Ms. Rebecca Bustamante Mills is a tangible example to every filipino, her story tells us that no matter how hard our life is, if we have the right attitude and determination to bring ourselves up, if we have the courage to make a change then everything is possible.

Not everyone can become a CEO but a CEO can come from anywhere.

Who would've thought that a struggling probinsyana  who used to work as an unpaid servant so she would have regular food to eat in her hometown and became a maid in Singapore, now the CEO of the company in the Philippines.

A supermom of two and a lovely wife of Mr. Richard Mills, Ms. Rebecca remain as simple as her past life even though she already  have everything in life. Today, she's not just busy working together with her business partner Richard Mills running a company and organizing Finance Summit, CEO forums, CEO Awards and etc. as part of their CSR but she and Mr  Mills are also busy sharing the success to other people  especially to the needy school kids, in fact 100 percent of the sales from these books will all go to the cause, buying computers and other school paraphernalias. Per Ms. Rebecca real success brings you happiness not just to you but to those around you and success is meaningless if it isn't shared with others.



For those interested to buy the book, please contact +632 892 6703 or send an email to chairman@asia-ceo.org.

The book is co-authored by Ms. Rebecca Bustamante, President and CEO of the Asia CEO Awards/ Asia CEO Forum, and Ms. Veronica Velarde-Pulumbarit, a veteran journalist.
