The most underestimated aspect of intrapreneurshipThe most difficult business process for companies to succeed at intrapreneurship is “Overcoming Corporate Obstacles.”

> In the excitement of launching a new business or line of business, companies will tend to focus on the innovation, the marketing and sales involved in launching new products, and the excitement around client adoption. Unfortunately, most will be blind to or simply not take the time to address the internal issues created by the parent company.

> The 12 intrapreneurial labors identified represent the most difficult internal challenges associated with launching a new business within a corporate environment. Some might appear innocuous at first glance, but do not underestimate their impact. My many years of experience have taught me that to ignore even a few of these challenges would be tantamount to corporate startup suicide.
