How many individuals posses an entrepreneurial spirit but do not necessarily desire owning their own business. Perhaps being an intrapreneur is the way for you to go. Intrapreneurship is a means to encourage employees assertive risk takers in developing their own ideas, innovations, and techniques into solid plans of action that create a profitable finished product.
Sir Richard Branson, Chairman and CEO of Virgin Group is a self-made multi-billionaire who believes that intrapreneuship plays an important role in building successful business. Sir Richard commented on the importance of Intrapreneurship in helping him build his brand at Virgin : “Virgin could never have grown into the group of more than 200 companies it is now, were it not for a steady stream of intrapreneurs who looked for and developed opportunities, often leading efforts that went against the grain.”
An Intrapreneur is simply an internal entrepreneur. These individuals do not need to be assigned the role within an organization they empower themselves and create the expanded role for themselves. Intrapreneships can be found within any organization be it large or small. Intrapreneurship does not mean you must come up with new products you can merely talks old concepts or products and develop new markets, increased efficiency or any aspect that will create growth for the company as well as the individual.
