Most people know what an entrepreneur is, however; have not heard of an Intrapreneur. So… what is an Intrapreneur & what do they do?
Are you an Entrepreneur or an Intrapreneur?
An intrapreneur is an inside entrepreneur, or an entrepreneur within a firm, who uses entrepreneurial skills to accomplish the goals necessary for a company to succeed. Intrapreneurs are usually employees within a company who are assigned to work on a special idea or project, and they develop the project like an entrepreneur would.
Similar to how entrepreneurs experiment, an intrapreneur possesses the freedom and independence to analyze and understand trends necessary for planning the company’s future. Intrapreneurs synthesize their findings and determine methods for staying ahead of their competitors & when intrapreneurs work at solving problems, they foster the growth of other talented intrapreneurs and integrate processes for the greater good of the entire company.
