What is it? Intrapraneurs – These are generally creative people who work as entrepreneurs within corporations Intrapreneurship – is being an entrepreneur while working in a corporation. This generally refers to how employees take initiatives to do something good/new for the company without being told to do so
3 Intrapreneurship Intrapreneurship focuses on the innovation and creativity of an individual. Whereby they transform their ideas into a profitable venture for the company. Intrapreneurship is not a selfish venture. They follow Fayol’s principle of: Subordination of individual interests to
the general interest. The intrapreneur does this for the good and welfare of the company, not for personal gain. Intrapreneurs in general have pride in their work/job. 4 Motivations Company’s can motivate intrapreneurship through formal and/or informal job design. The
position can be given a certain level of empowerment, which fosters and facilitates the introduction of new employee ideas. Commonly, companies ignore the opinions of lower level employees, and only upper management or special departments are heard 5 Motivation Intrapreneurs can also be
brought out from working on big projects. In general, during the idea screening and collaboration phases, employees are encouraged to act like entrepreneurs. Innovative ideas are more likely to come to light as resources are no longer a limiting factor 6 Intrapreneurship Intrapreneurship can be treated as entrepreneurship, however, there are some advantages: Because an employee has an established company backing them up, they are able to work on their idea, revise it, and try it again until it is successful. They can learn from their failures and build a successful venture
