Intrapreneurial Success Profiles

Corporate Entrepreneur and Social Intrapreneur Profiles

INTRAPRENEURIAL SUCCESS PROFILES

The key predictor of innovation success is leadership – intrapreneurial leadership.
Traditional leadership factors are no longer enough in a world that is full of ambiguity, uncertainty and the unknown.

The challenge is finding the right mix of competencies and behaviors that enable leaders to be effective in this role.  They must operate effectively in the core business at the same time they are building new ones.

Ones that create value and generate new business growth.

Global Intrapreneurial Success Profile Research

Although the terms corporate entrepreneurs, intrapreneurs and social intrapreneurs had been around for decades. There had been no research or empirical data to help identify these leaders, so we set out to find them.  We identified a group of executives from around the globe and across industry sectors that had successfully built million and billion dollar businesses for their organizations.

They told us that their organizations did not understand them or appreciate them for what they did or how they did it.  They were eager to help us because they wanted their organizations to understand what it took to be an entrepreneur or intrapreneurial leader inside an established company.

These leaders inspired us with their stories and provided an in-depth analysis of what it takes to succeed in these roles. They helped us open the door to a new type of leader.

Our pioneering research has unraveled the mystery of who these individuals are and the leadership competencies they need to succeed.
