History of Intrapreneurship
Word was coined in 1976 by Gifford and Elizabeth Pinchot
Based on their concept of an intra-corporate entrepreneur Began a school for intraprenuers in Sweden in 1985 The American Heritage Dictionary made the word

mainstream by adding it in 1992


I have found an example of Intrapreneurship dating back

centuries earlier

Intrapreneur
A person within a large corporation who takes direct responsibility for turning an idea into a profitable finished product through assertive risk taking and innovation.
Intrapreneurs have entrepreneurial skills blended with managerial skills but operate within the confines of an organization.

Defined as
Intrapreneurs are dreamers who do, those who take hands-on responsibility for creating innovation of any kind within an organization.
Gifford Pinchot

The intrapreneur is not necessarily inventors of new products / services but are the persons who can turn ideas or prototypes into profitable realities. Dr. William Souder

Developing Intrapreneurial Culture

Program. Appropriate Reward System

Multidiscipline Teamwork Approach Top Management Support; Sponsors made available.

Implementing the Intrapreneurship Culture


Treat intrapreneurial teams as profit centers rather than as cost centers
Allow team members a variety of options in jobs, in innovation efforts, alliances, and exchanges Encourage employees to develop through training programs

Intrapreneurial Activity
services

How does Business benefit?


Firms create competitive advantages by discovering new and better ways to compete in an industry and bringing them to market An enterprise that does not daily innovate inevitably ages and declines
Even in a successful business the disease of bureaucracy and complacency is dangerous
