The term "maverick" comes from Samuel A. Maverick (1803–1870), a Texas pioneer, lawyer, and land baron. He acquired a herd of cattle but was famously negligent in branding his calves, allowing them to roam freely without an owner's mark. As a result, any unbranded animal found on the range came to be known as a "maverick."
Over time, the word evolved to describe a person who, like those unbranded cattle, doesn't adhere to the "brand" or conventions of a group and prefers to go their own way. This is the most common modern usage. A maverick is someone who thinks and acts differently from others, often refusing to conform to established customs, rules, or ideas. They are often seen as rebels, individualists, or dissenters.
The old HR L&D playbook no longer works. To support the rapid transformation of our businesses, we must shed the constraints of traditional training mindsets. We have to sense-make and partner in unconventional ways - because to win in the future, we have to deliver and think like Mavericks.
