“’Have we made it impossible for bright rising stars and maverick go-getters to live within our organization?’ When we become too preoccupied with policy, procedure, and the fine-tuning of conformity to organizational standards, in effect, we have squeezed out some of our most gifted people.” – Hans Finzel, “The Top Ten Mistakes Leaders Make”
George Ambler said: “Mavericks are essential in every organization. Giving them the encouragement and space to contribute makes all the difference. Mavericks matter… because they bring us the future.”
