HOW WOULD YOU DEFINE A MAVERICK?

“Someone who thinks differently.You’re a maverick in your own way because you are a niche and you do things in a way that hasn’t been done before.  So it’s somebody that thinks outside the box, thinks in a different way and has the balls to actually go out and do it. Because a lot of people talk and a lot of people don’t actually get anything done. You’ve got to be able to talk and get shit done.”

WHY HERMIONE WAS INTERVIEWED

Hermione was a girl from the tech industry and Co-Founder of Vibease when I interviewed her.  From what I read it was apparent she was a maverick. As a mutual friend of Maverick Redg Snodgrass, CEO and Co-Founder of Wearable World. Hermione’s response on hearing about the Business Maverick project was  ‘Sure, when shall we do it?’ Hermione is fun, spunky, down to earth, brave and who has evolved from a fun girl into an entrepreneurial business woman.
