Joe Russo is a successful entrepreneur who has a great ability to make things happen and find ways around problems. He is passionate about making a difference and it is of the utmost importance that Joe leaves his mark with whoever he works with and whatever area he works in. Due to Joe's cultural background and the barriers, he faced as a youngster due to having severe dyslexia, he has perfected the art of creating human connections that bring about change and success.
'I'm especially passionate about bringing out the best from a lost cause. Many people in society are marginalised because of their background or, like me, are dyslexic. However, there is always hope and with the right help, support and creative thinking, change happens.'
Joe offers support to businesses in areas such as creating connections, dyslexia awareness and developing a successful culture.
He is currently working all over the country, working with huge initiatives such as Oasis UK and Lewis Hamilton’s Mission 44.
