Corporate Entrepreneurship

The art of having employees engage as they would in their own company

How important is it that every employee of our company has an entrepreneurial approach? How important is it that the managers of the company  have the ability not only to manage the business but also make it grow? How can we help employees understand the importance of the company mission, keeping their focus towards customers and products, while being innovative and maintaining a self-driven behaviour?
