In my blog for the Institute for Public Relations, I share research-led insights for communicators and leaders to embed an ‘intrapreneurial’ culture within organizations. Read the complete post here: https://instituteforpr.org/influencing-intrapreneurship-with-internal-communications/
Key highlights:
- The world of work is evolving rapidly. We need to consider trends like the ‘gig’ economy, democratization of information and the need for tapping individual talent.
- Employee engagement levels are stagnant and identifying truly engaged employees is a struggle.
- Intrapreneurial employees are considered more committed to the workplace.
- Creating an environment where employees can bring their ideas to life within the workplace is what matters.
- The role of open and authentic communication is critical for nurturing such an environment.
- Giving employees the autonomy to thrive builds trust and encourages them to go beyond their prescribed roles.
- Involving employees as equal partners is fundamental to an intrapreneurial workplace.
