The Inside Innovator

An inspiring, yet practical primer for readers interested in innovation within larger organizations. Many people assume that innovation is best suited to the entrepreneurial world. This is why many books have been written about the best ways to be an entrepreneur, yet those who innovate within the framework of a larger organization are often left to reinvent the wheel, over and over again. Until now. Award-winning intrapreneur and author Louis K. Gump shines a light on the efforts that go on behind the walls of almost every organization-from global business titans to small nonprofits, from government agencies to local market leaders and even schools; these are the places of the in-house innovators, the explorers, the intrapreneurs. And what is an intrapreneur? An intrapreneur creates value through innovation and growth, inside of a larger organization. They create new products and businesses that shape industries. The Inside Innovator is the playbook Gump wishes he'd had years ago while he and his teammates experimented through trial and error, problem-solved, and eventually found success through various phases of intrapreneurship. Full of insights from interviews with industry leaders and essential tools that Gump has learned through his decades of experience-this primer will help enable anyone in any industry to achieve more, build stronger relationships, and increase personal fulfillment through intrapreneurship.
