Abstract

The article has as objective to analyze motivation, self-esteem of intrapreneurs of the public sector on their performances. After defining the psychological profile of the intrapreneur, a quantitative and qualitative investigation of an enbedded case was carried out on three (03) intrapreneurs belonging to a mother enterprise. The results reveal that the more the self-esteem is high, graters is the motivation. Motivation causes persistent engagement (ou an attempt) to the creation of enterprises. Once the enterprise is created, the positive perception of his performance increases self-esteem of the intrapreneur. Self-esteem of the intrapreneur of the public sector depends on his competence, at the disposal for the promotion of entrepreneurship put into place by the mother enterprise and the encouragement of the colleagues of the intrapreneur. Self-esteem of the intrapreneur seems to be a component that should be developed in the perspective of promoting entrepreneurship.
