What is a social intrapreneur? The basic definition is an entrepreneur who takes action within his/her organization to solve social problems and create social impact while fundamentally transforming the business model and organization.

 

Now, with 2030 in mind, solving the world’s most pressing sustainability challenges through business has already become the new normal for global corporations.

 

Innovation can hardly be discussed without the prefix “sustainable”, and new forms of management and business initiatives are expected from all major key stakeholders.
Social Intrapreneurs are the people leading this new approach to sustainability innovation, from within existing organizations.

 

In this webinar, we will first learn how the term “intrapreneur” was born; then look at the definition and practice of “social intrapreneurship” – also touching on concrete examples and tips for action that can help enable the webinar participants to move along on their own journeys as social intrapreneurs.
