- 10. 10 Result (interview): Overall it's a very different result. 2 respondents described a more innovative and relaxed company, the third person a more rigid and traditional company. Answers c), d), f), g) where the respondents are very close together. The first thing that strikes you is that almost all the answers are of different nature. One notices immediately that two opinions gave relatively close answers. This is due to the similar view of the company. The 3rd self-employed person has a completely different company image and this is less innovative than opinions 1 and 2. Opinions 1 and 2 are innovative and free. As for the first question, all answers tend to be positive for the company. The company therefore supports people who want to become intrapreneurs. (Note: answers points 5,6,7) One answer stands out with 7 points. Regarding the second question, it should be said that 2 people let their employees work on projects with complete freedom, while one person doesn't think so. The traditional side of the company does not give workers freedom. As to the third question: Almost everyone in the company can do their job in their own way. Regarding the fourth question, almost all companies do not have the ability to access resources quickly. Regarding the fifth question, it can be said that one person answered this question completely in the negative, while the other two people answered more in the affirmative. Regarding the sixth question, almost everyone in the company tolerates mistakes. With regard to the seventh question, it can be said that everyone rated this question in the direction of "No". Regarding the eighth question, it can be said that 2 people answered this question in the negative and one opinion answered this question in the affirmative. Regarding the ninth question, it can be said that 2 opinions answered this question with "yes", one person with "no". To the tenth question, two people answered “Yes”, one person almost “No”. Overall, 2 people firmly believe that this is an innovative company, with the right culture and way of working. (you can find more details on this topic in the reflection section)
- 11. 11 Consideration Overall, all respondents (myself included) tend to prefer an innovative and independent company, depending on their own skills. Another aspect is that every employee tends to prefer to work in an innovative company (derived from my answers). Not every company can offer this opportunity. This is reflected in the interviews conducted. In all answers, the company tends to support those who want to become intrapreneurs. The answers to questions 2 and 3 suggest that not all companies have or can integrate an innovation culture. In answer d, mine and the person's are almost the same. It is hardly possible to simply get resources for new ideas. Many companies have a structure that requires resources to be approved from above, such as management or supervisors. Almost all answers to answer e) and f) are the same. This shows the company's willingness to innovate. This answer also shows that an atmosphere should be created in which innovations arise. Long-term and high-risk projects are difficult for many companies, as is involving employees in brainstorming sessions. The companies I have met make great efforts to support these projects, but it has been shown that not every company is able to do so. The last two answers to the interview show that larger companies are more innovative in this case. The already mentioned traditional side of the company shows less flexibility and ability to innovate. Overall, the interview shows that larger companies are more flexible and innovative than small traditional companies.
