Abstract:
In today's dynamic business environment, agility, creativity, and responsiveness are critical for organisations to remain competitive. The study highlights the need of corporate entrepreneurship (CE) in navigating today's unpredictable business climate. It sheds light on strategic corporate management by investigating the link between CE and organisational career growth (OCG). Designed around five hypotheses drawn from existing research, the study placed explored the relationship between CE and OCG and examined the potential moderating effects of gender, age, job level, and departmental functions on the relationship.
The quantitative study used a descripto-explanatory research design, analysing 85 responses from self-completed online questionnaires by the application of Spearman correlation and Ordinal Logistic Regression. The findings show a significant positive correlation between the management support, reward/reinforcement dimensions of CE, and OCG. This indicates that these dimensions of CE are critical for supporting career advancement within organisations. Contrary to predictions, the suggested moderating factors, gender, age, position level, and departmental functions had no significant effect on the CE-OCG relationship.
This study's findings, interpreted through the lens of the growth mindset theory, expand academic discourse, and offer guidance to organisations on the use of CE to enhance employee engagement, talent development, and innovation.
