so we've been seeing this term pop up
all around social media intrapreneurship
coming up next hey guys ECR g here back
with another video today we've got a
really good one we're gonna be talking
about intrapreneurship that is basically
the term intra like within an
organization and entrepreneurship Jam
together and a lot of you guys may not
have heard this term or are probably
loosely familiar with what the term is
and it's basically an entrepreneur
inside of an organization and I think
over the course of the next decade to 15
years from now as Millennials become the
overwhelming job creators and employees
in the workforce and I guess Gen Z or
something that comes after the
Millennials Gen Y whatever they are the
people that are younger they have a
unique need and want for autonomy and
freedom within the workplace so I think
we're gonna see a lot more
intrapreneurship companies adopting this
model where you have different silos of
people working on their own projects and
things to bring to the mainstream where
we haven't seen that before
this term was originally founded in 1978
by Gifford Pinchot and you know really
extends from the Silicon Valley
demographic startup culture where you
know the Entrepreneurship spirit is very
strong but I think as as we grow and as
Millennials become the dominant job
makers in society in our owning the
businesses and making all the decisions
in society that we're gonna see a lot
more intrapreneurship because people are
moving more towards wanting the freedom
in the autonomy that people of our
parents generation you know 45 and up
right now did not want or need
they wanted the characteristic lifestyle
of you know get the house get the dog
with the white picket fence all of that
stuff but the Millennials and younger
don't seem to really want that so I
think people companies are gonna adapt
and become more susceptible and become
more focused on entrepreneurship as a
way to keep people happy within the
corporate culture as well as achieve
very big goals we right now have a lot
of things that need to be fixed and a
lot of people believe that
entrepreneurship is the way to fix them
so you know intrapreneurship is one way
to fix that as well because you are
going to have the safety net of a large
organization the resources the the
skills of a larger organization to kind
of power you to the product or whatever
you're trying to fix through
entrepreneurship so it's a very
interesting idea where like most
entrepreneurs are kind of you know solo
you know they have got their funding and
they're like kind of working on their
own but in this way you have the safety
and resources of a company too that you
can kind of leverage in order to get
products onto the market so this is
interesting there are many examples of
this that that there are many examples
of the intrapreneur throughout history
apparently the Macintosh team the team
that developed max were entrepreneurs in
Apple and you know that they pretty much
you know did that within the Apple
ecosystem and we're able to come with
some interesting products I know Google
has a strong culture of this as well and
you know it's people that are like above
the manager level who are doing this
typically in the corporate structure
today you know it's the executive team
that kind of work independently and
report back to the CEO but they're in
charge of a lot on their own but in the
intrapreneurship
realm you're gonna you're gonna have to
have some experience of some trust but
the with the company but you're gonna be
in charge of your own thing and it's
gonna be people that are like self
driven self-motivated kind of know what
they're doing and who knows maybe
something big like the Macintosh can be
brought about in this way and really the
main reason for me even making this
videos because as mindsets change as
mindset shift over the next five to ten
years I think we're gonna see a lot more
autonomy coming to the workplace
especially in clinical research
you know clinical research is usually
about five to ten years later than
everybody else but I think there's a lot
of opportunity for the intrapreneurship
mindset to take hold and clinical
research and I'm gonna give you a couple
of examples one the CRA that might be an
intrapreneur
that might be intrapreneur right now or
at least kind of like a self-employed
freelance type of gig right now because
most of them actually might say probably
90% or more work from home when they're
not traveling and when they're not at
home they're traveling so they are
pretty much by themselves they only call
in for meetings etc things like that via
WebEx or via phone they are never really
in the office you know they get excused
for a lot of things so a lot of people
like it for that autonomy for that
freedom that they have so that's one of
the jobs especially but in clinical
research as a whole you've got plenty of
people project managers clinical trial
leads project directors you've got a lot
of positions that are just 100% remote
pretty much and you know just work in a
home office and that kind of gets that
intrapreneurship spirit because you've
got to trust yourself and understand
that you've got to get the job done and
you know you're responsible for your
goals so it's it's kind of similar but
not really because they aren't in charge
of you know developing their own project
and bringing something to the market but
they are in charge of a big like 20
million dollar budget
of a protocol in a clinical trial and
steering that and making sure that the
drug is able to get through whatever
phase of clinical trial that it is and
still make the CRO some money at the end
of the day so it kind of has that spirit
but not exactly the same thing so I
think this is a culture that is
definitely going to be popular in
clinical trials in clinical research
because they're kind of moving towards
that in some ways already you've got
tons of employees and clinical research
that are home-based you got business
development people that are home-based
you've got even entry-level people at
clinical trial assistants project
specialists project coordinators remote
monitors so how these people can be
home-based if they're not already and
kind of will develop into that
intrapreneurship mindset so I think with
the advent of people wanting that
autonomy and freedom and the in the
benefits for the companies to allow
remote work I think we're well on our
way to being in that mindset where
you're kind of siloed on your own but
you're heavily connected to technology
and this is one of those things where
technology has really benefitted this if
not for at least the fact that we even
are able to understand what this is and
look at this and as a popular as a
popular way of doing business in the
future so wanted to bring that to you
about entrepreneurship I think this is a
term that you guys should look out for
over the next couple years see if your
companies are gonna be doing anything
with that and I think it's really gonna
be a cutting edge and something to
really look out for so hope you like
