Infographic: Are You an Entrepreneur or Intrapreneur?


The battle between working for someone else in a large corporation versus venturing on your own rages in many people’s mind. On one hand, there is safety and security of working for someone without having to take on large financial risk; while on other hand there is an urge to go out on your own to prove to yourself what you are capable of.
