Intrapreneurs innovate in the ranks of the company

Intrapreneurs are company employees who act as entrepreneurs in the organisation and manage their own projects, the goal of which is to come up with new ideas that can be integrated into the company’s profile profitably.

A study conducted in 98 countries with more than 19,000 businesspersons by Regus asked about the best ways of training intrapreneurs: 53 percent of Hungarian firms would opt for skill improving training programmes, 38 percent named relationship building and managing functions within the organisations and 36 percent mentioned good communication with the management. Katerina Manou, regional director of Regus told that one of the most efficient means to support intrapreneurship is flexible working time. 47 percent of Hungarian survey participants also said flexible working hours give an impetus to innovation.
