Social Intrapreneurship in the System of Corporate Social Performance

Abstract

The main objective of the research is to identify different directions and instruments of multinational corporations towards the development of social intrapreneurship. This study sheds more light on what are the major facilitators of social intrapreneurship, what are the main characteristics distinguishing social intrapreneurship from the rest of the projects and initiatives of companies and makes it possible to see the interconnection and interdependence between social intra- and entrepreneurs. This work accumulates the existing knowledge about the topic, as well as provides analysis of the areas which haven't been investigated before and consolidates the instruments and practices of the companies, which facilitate social intrapreneurship. This work is especially valuable, because it provides the answers to the questions which were not answered before, and it provides the recommendations, based on the real cases, which were never accumulated before in any of the papers so far available on the topic in question. The author also suggests the research questions for further analysis, as well as a hypothesis for testing.
