Intrapreneurs are the beating heart of forward-thinking organisations and transformations.

After working with clients across a range of industries, we have seen how the need for strategic transformation and innovation is now more pressing than ever. Yet we’ve also realised that most organisations lack the crucial entrepreneurial talent and culture required for successful transformation.

Now, during times of fundamental change, organisations have to pay attention to and empower, Intrapreneurs.

At Studio Zao, we run in-person and remote talent development acceleration programmes that empower future entrepreneurial leaders. That’s why we have collected all of our learnings and insights into this white paper that explores how to identify, empower and unleash the potential of Intrapreneurs as key drivers of change and innovation from within.

We hope you find it helpful, and please feel free to get in touch should it spark any questions or ideas.
