Companies Sought for Study on Ownership Behaviors

Executive Director

Brigham Young University's Entrepreneurship Center and the Ballard Center are seeking companies to participate in a new research project on intrapreneurship. The project's goal is to help organizations nurture intrapreneurial attitudes and actions by determining what challenges need to be overcome, which skills need to be gained, and how the organization must change.

The study will cover workforce readiness (barriers and drivers of individual intrapreneurship) and organizational readiness (systemic barriers and drivers of innovation). If enough employee-owned companies participate, the study may also differences in employee engagement between employee-owned companies and traditionally owned companies. To learn more about participating in this international research project, see IntrapreneurIndex.com.
