MAAK N PLAN: VICKY ROSS

Those who have embarked on the entrepreneurial journey will tell you — being an entrepreneur is a rollercoaster ride of exhilarating highs and challenging lows.

Many entrepreneurs will also tell you that, when stepping into the world of business, it’s crucial to learn how to protect your heart. Running a business often means making decisions that are right for the company, even when they don’t align with your emotions. While entrepreneurs are certainly not emotionless, they know when to step back and recognize when it’s time to move on.

A true Joburger at heart, Vicky was raised by an accountant father and a creative mother, and she reflects on how this unique upbringing has shaped her understanding of people, business, and culture.
