Last week, we talked about how you don’t need a product or an LLC to think like a leader. I’m not checking business licenses at the door of Salesgirl Social. Because some of the best and most impactful women I know… work for someone else.

Those women? The ones who lead themselves, bring ideas, take initiative, and raise the standard? We call them intrapreneurs, and they’re exactly who you want on your team.

Whether you’re leading 200 people or just dreaming about your first hire one day, you may need to bookmark this one. Because how you think about team culture starts long before onboarding does.

Let’s break down how to spot intrapreneurs, grow them, and build a business where they thrive.

How to Foster an Intrapreneurial Spirit on Your Team:

1. Give them ownership.
Let them lead a project, run a meeting, or take something across the finish line. When someone has ownership over a task or a goal, their brain actually shifts how it processes the work. Set expectations, then get out of the way.

2. Encourage ideas and risk-taking.
Make your culture safe for smart risk. Reward the courage to try, even if it doesn’t work the first time. We never get in trouble for any play we run, except not making a decision and running one at all.

3. Show them the why.
Intrapreneurs want to understand the bigger picture. Connect their role to the mission, not just the task list. Don’t have a clear mission? It feels fluffy, I get it, but it’s proven to be one of your biggest drivers in retention, productivity and culture.

4. Invest in their growth.
Give them tools, feedback, and challenges. Intrapreneurs don’t always do everything right, but they can be told that without having a menty b because it’s all part of the game. Feedback should be the norm with your team so it doesn’t feel like a big, doom and gloom moment when a piece of work isn’t quite right.

5. Let them build something of their own.
Give them the space to create and own something real inside your business. It sparks a different level of pride and performance. Whether it’s the best asset you have or one to have in the wings, everyone wins.

And just as important but slightly scarier… Fire for it.

Some people don’t want to lead themselves. They want to be told what to do. That’s totally fine, respectable and rest easy knowing that there are soooo many jobs out there that can deliver tasks with no emotion. TRUST. I’ve seen them. I’ve worked them.

But when you tolerate passivity in a fast paced job, you lose momentum.. and your best people start looking for the exit.

When you hire for ownership, promote for performance, and part ways with the ones who aren’t on board? You create a culture where high standards aren’t just expected - they’re lived.

And when everyone on your team thinks like an owner? You don’t just grow. You multiply.

May we spot them, grow them, and be them.
