What IS A Corporate Entrepreneurial Quotient

Businesses today are implementing a variety of new technology and process improvements to make their organizations more nimble while empowering their employees to be more engaged.


Corporate entrepreneurial leaders gain strategic and tactical insight by developing strategies and tactics that bring ideas to reality while proactively managing change and exploiting opportunity. 

In complex and volatile environments, the escalating ineffectiveness of more traditional approaches to accessing your company’s corporate wisdom calls for a corporate entrepreneurial approach. An approach that will enhance the company’s performance, its capacity for adaptation, and its chances of long-term survival. 

A new type of assessment is needed which can operate in a highly unpredictable world where competition and markets are fast moving. A tool we are finding helpful is the Corporate Entrepreneurial Assessment. This unique tool allows us to present the current state in a four quadrant graph, while giving us and our client to look at quantitative as well as quantitative key performance indicators (KPIs).
