Abstract:
While the birth and consolidation of an enterprise depends on the vrsion and
capabilities of the promoters, growth of the enterprise largely depends on many other
factors. The overall environment in the organisation and the creativity and competence
of its work force are some of the factors. An enterprise grows faster if the planners and
decision makers (often executives) are also entrepreneurial, i.e. are able to perceive
further business opportunities and are capable of innovating, using the current
enterprise and its available resources as a base. These entrepreneurial traits must be
both cultivated and nurtured in the work force. The process of developing these traits
among employees is called intrapreneurship.
