5 Tips to Transform Yourself into an Entrepreneur

“If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.” – Henry Ford

Finding the right talent is a task. But when you do find the perfect match, helping them evolve into a leader becomes the organisation’s responsibility. ‘Corporate intrapreneurship’ perfectly defines the struggle of organisations to acquire the right talent. It basically means setting up a self-sustainable ecosystem that will ensure a strategic evolution of the existing business, for the future generation leaders.

Intrapreneurship thus, becomes a mindset. A journey of an individual evolving into an employee who thinks of the organisation as their own. An employee from within the organisation with an entrepreneurial mindset and the resources at their disposal.

Here are five attributes that set intrapreneurs apart from the rest of their peers.

1) Ownership – Not just a job

“This is my company” Intrapreneurs promote the workplace culture with a strong sense of belonging. Right from exercising financial prudence in deciding which vendor to work with on projects (without compromising on quality) to exerting a strong will on making things happen 'the right way'. From being at the forefront to driving an initiative, to leading by example and becoming an inspiration for others to follow – they exhibit a strong sense of accountability.
