The term ‘Entrepreneur’ is well used and well known in the business world, but what about it’s sibling the ‘Intrapreneur’? It’s a term that is relatively unheard of and little understood. And how can you tell if you are one?

Intrapreneurs are simply entrepreneurs working to create positive change from inside an organisation. They come in all shapes and sizes and can be found in all sectors and industries. You might be working in a large corporation, a family owned business, a government agency or a not-for-profit. Intrapreneurs seek to create impact by challenging the status quo and driving innovation within their businesses. They may be small innovations that affect the organisation they work within, or they may be bold, significant endeavours which create positive change in the broader community or even globally.
