Notes on the Practice of Corporate Entrepreneurship NOTES ON THE PRACTICE OF CORPORATE ENTREPRENEURSHIP Charles Kiefer © August 2016 Notes on the Practice of Corporate Entrepreneurship Charles Kiefer © August 2016 If you are someone with the desire to do something innovative, unprecedented, unfamiliar, unusual or simply different within your organization, The Practice of Corporate Entrepreneurship should help you. What you want to do could take many forms. Maybe you have an idea you want to pursue that you think can make a difference to your customers or to your organization, or you might be looking for a way of standing out among your peers to advance your career. Whatever the case, you want to do it safely for all parties involved while maximizing the likelihood of success. Think of this document as a corporate entrepreneur’s survival manual. Although there are no recipes for success, by following the method advanced here, you will be much more likely to succeed (that is, of course, if your idea truly has merit.) The Practice of Corporate Entrepreneurship is a compendium of notes, readings, and other material that have been prepared by Leonard Schlesinger, Baker Foundation Professor at the Harvard Business School, and me for our entrepreneurship students at universities and inside large organizations. It addresses material that is uncovered elsewhere, for example in two excellent textbooks: Corporate Entrepreneurship by Paul Burns and Corporate Entrepreneurship and Innovation by Michael Morris, Donald Kuratko, and Jeffrey Covin, or in two particularly good books for the entrepreneurial individual: Eric Ries’s The Lean Startup and Bill Aulet’s Disciplined Entrepreneurship. Revisions. The corporate entrepreneurship field is developing rapidly and some of this material will likely become obsolete or otherwise need updating over time.

As a matter of personal preference only, we will use Entrepreneur Inside (EI) instead of intrapreneur, corporate entrepreneur, internal entrepreneur, and others. And we will generally use New Venture Entrepreneur (NVE) for the classic entrepreneur acting on his or her own behalf instead of external entrepreneur, outside entrepreneur, and others.

Over the course of five years, we held seminars and workshops in various settings for hundreds of people who were interested in the subject, and we summarized what we learned from these practitioners in our book Just Start—Take Action, Embrace Uncertainty, Create the Future (Harvard Business Review Press, 2012). That book built on the groundbreaking research of Saras Sarasvathy at the University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business on entrepreneurship as a method. Follow-on research* at Babson College posited that Entrepreneurs Inside (EI) use precisely the same logic, although in different ways, as a consequence of being inside a larger organization of which they’re not owners. Moreover, it became clear that the logic was being widely applied by people trying to do something innovative or unprecedented in an organization even when not in the pursuit of a new business. In Just Start we coined the term Creaction for the logic that entrepreneurs use when they embark on a venture. We've changed the term here to Act Learn Build (ALB) because it emphasizes action and building off the last step taken rather than some previously constructed plan. Entrepreneurial products emerge from the interaction between the entrepreneur and their customers or users. In this way, the entrepreneur is like a painter—the painting emerging from the interaction between the artist, the paint and the canvas. We are convinced that the intelligent understanding and application of the ALB logic can dramatically increase the likelihood of success for any venture into the unknown. The logic in part explains why entrepreneurs do the things that they do and why the myriad tools and methods of corporate entrepreneurship (CE) may or may not be effective in helping you and your organization become more entrepreneur friendly. What is entrepreneurship inside a large organization? For many firms entrepreneurship is now appearing, often reluctantly, on the agenda of executives leading companies and for people joining those firms or advising them. Large organizations and many business schools are trying to learn about it. While there are many definitions of CE it has generally been about

Copies of working papers are available from the author. Merchants and the Origins of Capitalism Sophus A. Reinert and Robert Fredona ABSTRACT: N.S.B. Gras, the father of Business History in the United States, argued that the era of mercantile capitalism was defined by the figure of the “sedentary merchant,” who managed his business from home, using correspondence and intermediaries, in contrast to the earlier “traveling merchant,” who accompanied his own goods to trade fairs. Taking this concept as its point of departure, this essay focuses on the predominantly Italian merchants who controlled the long‐distance East‐West trade of the Mediterranean during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Until the opening of the Atlantic trade, the Mediterranean was Europe’s most important commercial zone and its trade enriched European civilization and its merchants developed the most important premodern mercantile innovations, from maritime insurance contracts and partnership agreements to the bill of exchange and double‐entry bookkeeping. Emerging from literate and numerate cultures, these merchants left behind an abundance of records that allows us to understand how their companies, especially the largest of them, were organized and managed.

  • Shareholder Capitalism a System in Crisis New Economics Foundation Shareholder Capitalism
    SHAREHOLDER CAPITALISM A SYSTEM IN CRISIS NEW ECONOMICS FOUNDATION SHAREHOLDER CAPITALISM SUMMARY Our current, highly financialised, form of shareholder capitalism is not Shareholder capitalism just failing to provide new capital for – a system driven by investment, it is actively undermining the ability of listed companies to the interests of reinvest their own profits. The stock shareholder-backed market has become a vehicle for and market-fixated extracting value from companies, not companies – is broken. for injecting it. No wonder that Andy Haldane, Chief Economist of the Bank of England, recently suggested that shareholder capitalism is ‘eating itself.’1 Corporate governance has become dominated by the need to maximise short-term shareholder returns. At the same time, financial markets have grown more complex, highly intermediated, and similarly short- termist, with shares increasingly seen as paper assets to be traded rather than long-term investments in sound businesses. This kind of trading is a zero-sum game with no new wealth, let alone social value, created. For one person to win, another must lose – and increasingly, the only real winners appear to be the army of financial intermediaries who control and perpetuate the merry-go- round. There is nothing natural or inevitable about the shareholder-owned corporation as it currently exists. Like all economic institutions, it is a product of political and economic choices which can and should be remade if they no longer serve our economy, society, or environment. Here’s the impact

  • Outline of a Business Plan Plan Summary Company And
    APPENDIX B OUTLINE OF A BUSINESS PLAN A business plan is a description of your proposed or existing business and should include information on the business' products or services, markets, marketing strategies, manufacturing procedures, ownership, management structure, needs (organizational, personnel and financial) and projections. A well-prepared business plan serves two important functions. First, it is a basic management tool that helps guide the future direction of your company. Second, it is a mandatory document if you plan to seek business financing. How much detail should your business plan contain and in what order? What will help make it effective in communicating your proposed or existing company's strengths and potential? The purpose of this section of the handbook is to help you answer such questions. Not all plans need to be alike. Some sections of this outline may be more applicable to your company than others. You should make every effort to tailor your plan to your company's specific set of circumstances. PLAN SUMMARY A well-written business plan summary allows prospective lenders and investors to quickly decide if they want to examine the entire plan in detail. Therefore, your objective in the plan summary is to convince them to study the plan further. Although a plan summary appears first, it should be the last part you write. The summary should briefly highlight the key elements of your business plan and include the following points: - A brief history of your business or business concept; - A description of your products or services with emphasis on their distinguishing features, the market needs they will meet, the market potential and assessment of the competition: - How the products will be made, or services performed; - An outline of your management team's experience and talent; - A summary of your financial projections; and - How much money you are seeking, in what form, for what purpose and how it will be repaid.

  • Islamic Finance” After State-Sponsored Capitalist Islamism

This paper is a work in progress and has not been submitted for editorial review. “Islamic Finance” after State-Sponsored Capitalist-Islamism Mahmoud A. El-Gamal Rice University December 2017 Abstract During the late part of the nineteenth century CE, nationalist-Islamism emerged as a theology of liberation from the realities of European colonialism under which most Muslims lived. This form of Islamism survived into the mid twentieth century, without significant thought being lent to the possibility or desirability of a so-called “Islamic finance.” Indeed, juristic developments during this period justified conventional financial practices, and many nationalist movements aimed merely to replace European financial institutions with indigenous ones focused on boosting domestic and re- gional economic development. Shortly after independence, and under the influence of global currents, the liberation theology of nationalist-Islamism mutated into a socialist-Islamism that focused on self reliance to defeat poverty and continued economic dependence of Muslim-majority countries.

  • War Markets: the Neoliberal Theory
    WAR MARKETS: THE NEOLIBERAL THEORY AND THE UNITED STATES MILITARY ___________________________________ A Thesis Presented to The College of Arts and Sciences Ohio University ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for Graduation with Honors in Political Science ____________________________________ by Kiersten Lynn Arnoni June 2011 This thesis has been approved by the Department of Political Science and the College of Arts and Sciences ____________________________________ Professor of Political Science ____________________________________ Dean, College of Arts and Sciences Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Barry Tadlock for his support and guidance as my thesis advisor. Dr. Tadlock’s suggestions were valuable assets to this thesis. Abstract The neoliberal theory threatens permanent damage to American democracy. One guiding principle of theory is that the political marketplace is guided by market rationality. Also concentration of power resets with business and governing elites. As business norms begin to dominate politically, democratic ideals and laws equate only to tools and hurdles. Can the neoliberal theory help explain the situation of privatization and our military? Since the end of the Cold War, military size has been reduced, however, the need for military presence has not. The private war industry has begun to pick up the slack and private contractors have increased in areas needing military support. In Iraq, contractors make up the second largest contingent force, behind the U.S. military. Blackwater, or currently Xe Services LLC, is a powerful organization within the private war industry. Blackwater has accumulated over one billion dollars in contracts with the U.S. government. With the expanding use of private war contractors, their constitutionality comes into question.

  • Chinese Companies Listed on Major U.S. Stock Exchanges
    Last updated: October 2, 2020 Chinese Companies Listed on Major U.S. Stock Exchanges This table includes Chinese companies listed on the NASDAQ, New York Stock Exchange, and NYSE American, the three largest U.S. exchanges.1 As of October 2, 2020, there were 217 Chinese companies listed on these U.S. exchanges with a total market capitalization of $2.2 trillion.2 3 Companies are arranged by the size of their market cap. There are 13 national- level Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) listed on the three major U.S. exchanges. In the list below, SOEs are marked with an asterisk (*) next to the stock symbol.4 This list of Chinese companies was compiled using information from the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, commercial investment databases, and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB). 5 NASDAQ information is current as of February 25, 2019; NASDAQ no longer publicly provides a centralized listing identifying foreign-headquartered companies. For the purposes of this table, a company is considered “Chinese” if: (1) it has been identified as being from the People’s Republic of China (PRC) by the relevant stock exchange; or, (2) it lists a PRC address as its principal executive office in filings with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Of the Chinese companies that list on the U.S. stock exchanges using offshore corporate entities, some are not transparent regarding the primary nationality or location of their headquarters, parent company or executive offices. In other words, some companies which rely on offshore registration may hide or not identify their primary Chinese corporate domicile in their listing information.

  • “Anarchists Are More Animal Than Human”: Rationality, Savagery, and the Violence of Property
    “Anarchists Are More Animal than Human”: Rationality, Savagery, and the Violence of Property Benjamin Abbott When I first read Chris Hedges’ now infamous denunciation of “Black Bloc anarchists” in the Occupy Wall Street movement, I felt as if I had stepped back in time to the turn of the twentieth century. Hedges’ charges of senseless aggression motivated by primal passions and bent only on universal destruction would fit seamlessly into an 1894 issue of the New York Herald-Tribune or Los Angeles Times. However, as Doreen Massey reminds us, such attempts to assign contemporaries to the past denies how we share space in the world and implies belief in a teleological narrative of progress. Invoking tropes of animality to rhetorically construct political opponents as – to use Chandan Reddy's words – “the enemies of modern political society” remains a key persuasive strategy as well as an enduring technology of capitalism, colonialism, and imperialism here in the twenty-first century. Even a cursory look at language of the war on terror and its production of the Islamic terrorist as national bête noire demonstrates this. Though I would like to simply dismiss Hedges’ anti-anarchist piece as an anomalous echo of discredited reactionary hyperbole, I instead interpret it as representative of a thriving modern phenomenon. The Occupy Wall Street movement has prompted a proliferation and reemphasis of the preexisting discourse of anarchists as the inhuman and unreasonably violent enemies of humanity.1 This essay takes the Hedges article as a point of departure to explore earlier expressions of this discourse specifically through the lens of property.
