As an organization, you want to stay ahead. This means constantly innovating, growing and changing to stay relevant in today’s rapidly changing world. But how do you make sure your organization is not left behind? One way is by encouraging intrapreneurship.

Intrapreneurship is the creation of an entrepreneurial culture within an organization. It means giving employees room to experiment, come up with new ideas and implement them within the existing organizational structure. So intrapreneurs are actually entrepreneurs within the walls of their own organizations.

At Workboost, we believe intrapreneurship is essential to the success of any organization. Below we are happy to share why.

Intrapreneurship brings new ideas and innovation

Intrapreneurs often have new ideas that can provide innovation and growth within the organization. They look differently at existing processes and devise innovative ways to improve them. By encouraging intrapreneurship, you encourage employees to think out-of-the-box and discover new opportunities.

Intrapreneurs are engaged employees

Intrapreneurs are often passionate employees who actively think about how the organization can improve. Giving employees the space to come up with and implement ideas makes them feel more committed to the organization and more motivated to contribute to its success.

Intrapreneurs strengthen competitiveness

Intrapreneurship can help make the organization more competitive. Constantly innovating and developing new products or services keeps the organization relevant and interesting to customers and other stakeholders.

But how do you encourage intrapreneurship within your organization? Here are some tips:

1. Give employees space to come up with and implement new ideas.
2. Create an open culture where employees can speak freely.
3. Encourage collaboration and sharing of knowledge and experiences.
4. Offer training and workshops to support employees in their intrapreneurial mindset.
5. Reward intrapreneurs for their successes and encourage them to continue developing new ideas.

At Workboost, we encourage intrapreneurship within our own organization and those of our clients. We believe that fostering an entrepreneurial culture contributes to the growth and innovation of any organization. Would you also like to get started with Workboost? Request a demo now!
