An intrapreneur is a worker who does new things within a company, i.e. a person who undertakes without owning the company.
Este movido siglo XXI es muy distinto al anterior, es por eso que estamos viviendo en un tiempo de cambio que no parece vaya a parar sino que parece ir a más. Ya he comentado en otras ocasiones que este siglo viene empujado por dos motores, como son la transparencia y la collaboration; pero además estos dos motores van en dirección contraria a la opacidad y el individualismo marcaron el tecnificado siglo XX.
To adapt to this new world to which this new century and this new millennium are giving rise,
companies have two options: to disappear and re-found themselves or to bring in change agents - intrapreneurs
within its structure, i.e. find The company is looking for people who are restless, versatile and capable of completely adapting their company to new customer needs.
Transparency and collaboration serve to build networks, while opacity and individualism serve to create hierarchies in companies. New companies are fast, light and work in networks; companies that are disappearing today are slow, heavy and work hierarchically.
This new century, this new time, is marked by networks and by the phenomena emerging that go from the bottom up. The hierarchies in the companies do not give an answer to what the client asks for neither in time nor in form, to respond to what the client is looking for today, the companies need employees who think for themselves, as is the case of the intrapreneurs.
But the intrapreneur has to go a step further since he has to be an example for his colleagues,
must not only think for himself but must also get his peers to think for themselves, he must be the catalyst to build networks.
