Abstract
This thesis added the concept of PIED to the literature and showed that PIED has a positive relationship with intrapreneurial behaviour – specifically with innovativeness and intrapreneurial intention. Furthermore, it showed that SET can be applied to these results and demonstrates that education, function, gender, and age significantly impact behavioural and intentional intrapreneurship. It also showed that the Theory of Planned Behaviour was not applicable. Companies could use this result and focus on changing their culture into one where investing in personal development is highly stimulated and made possible. In exchange, their employees will reward them with more innovativeness. Enhancing PIED could also lead to higher intrapreneurial intention – namely, the intention to start a new project or venture. Companies could make significant progress by addressing the importance of their employees’ personal development.
