HOW ARE CREATIVITY AND INNOVATION RELATED TO BEING A MAVERICK?

“Being a maverick is all about creativity, not just being creative in terms of art and stuff like that, that’s what creativity is usually related to but creativity is how you live your life, how you take decisions and I think that’s what creativity is about and what being a maverick is…Innovation only comes about when you think outside of the box.”

IS THERE ANYONE WHO’S A MAVERICK THAT INSPIRES YOU?

“Mother Teresa and Richard Branson the English businessman and investor.”
