Intrapreneurship Academy: Cultivating Internal Leadership

At the Intrapreneurship Academy, we empower employees to think and act like entrepreneurs—finding opportunity in change, driving innovation, and making an outsized impact. We believe Agility, Innovation, and Leadership are not separate skills — they’re part of one powerful continuum. Our three Learning Journeys help individuals and organizations thrive in times of change: building the agility to adapt, the creativity to innovate, and the leadership to drive meaningful impact.

Each course stands alone, yet together they form a complete system for developing intrapreneurial leaders who turn ideas into action and disruption into opportunity. Through an applied learning approach, Intrapreneurship Academy equips emerging and established leaders to create greater impact within their organizations.

Flexible Learning Options

Our intrapreneurial learning content is organized across three Learning Journeys— Agility, Innovation, and Leadership—each comprised of three 3-week courses. Courses can be taken individually or as a progressive series that builds on one another. Each Learning Journey runs twice per year—Spring and Fall. Content can also be customized into in-person Masterclasses, scheduled series, or organization-specific licensing agreements.
