But like a growing number of employees called intrapreneurs, he chose to start something new in his existing company and innovate from within.

“We would create these safe spaces for intrapreneurs to come together and share their stories about working in the corporate world because they are going against the grain so often.”

-
fundamental question is what is going to have people get motivated and inspired to be in their highest contribution. What is going to get you fired up to do what you came here to do?
