Intrapreneurship as a Corporate Management System

This study examines the phenomenon of intrapreneurship, its existing interpretations, and approaches for understanding it as an adaptive organization structure. Aim. This study aims to determine the properties of a corporate management system that efficiently develops intrapreneurship. Tasks. The practical result of this study is the identification of directions and key management tools used in the implementation of programs that enhance the overall flexibility and adaptability of an organization. Methods. An examination of the existing approaches to the understanding of intrapreneurship is conducted using content analysis, comparative and critical analyses of theoretical sources, and the synthesis of practical experience and the theoretical concepts of corporate management system architectonics developed by the author. Results. The study reveals two different approaches to the interpretation of intrapreneurship: as a form of management and as a mode of employee behavior. To combine these two approaches on the basis of the concept of architectonics, the author proposes a hypothesis regarding intrapreneurship as a corporate management system consisting of a decentralized organizational structure, a horizontal management model, and an entrepreneurial organizational culture supported by a delegating type of management. Conclusion. Intrapreneurship should be viewed as a modification of the corporate management system that encourages the identification and cultivation of innovators within the organization, which increases the speed and adequacy of responses to changes in the external environment. Such an interpretation gives a manageable and practice-oriented tone to the phenomenon of intrapreneurship. Elements of the proposed management system can be used to optimize and transform organizations in order to improve their flexibility and sustainability by developing their innovative potential. Only a complex approach to the transformation of management and organizational culture, along with the appropriate type of management, will lead a company to the desired result.
