10. Intrapreneuring - coined by Pinchot in 1978
Actions of individual and/or team
acting in entrepreneurial manner to
serve organization’s best interests,
with or without official support.
Business practices liberating people
with entrepreneurial personalities to
innovate rapidly inside larger
organizations for benefit of
organization and its customers.

driven in part by a restless,
younger workforce eager to
make a real impact with their
careers.

meaning

organization for intrapreneurs
