My boss, Greg, has been on a virtual rampage talking about the new whiz bang myTPSreport.com extra strength widget on his blog lately… So not to be out done, I’ve decided to talk about it here on my personal blog as well.
To showcase its awesome powers, I performed and saved a search for a term that is becoming near and dear to my heart. That term is known as: intrapreneur. If you’re not aware, an intrapreneur is defined by The American Heritage Dictionary, via wikipedia, as:
“a person within a large corporation who takes direct responsibility for turning an idea into a profitable finished product through assertive risk-taking and innovation”
If that doesn’t define what we’re trying to do at work, then I don’t know what does. Back to the commercial though, be sure to check out the fact that I’ve embedded a little piece of heaven, aka the all new myTPSreport.com widget, into this very blog post… Also make sure that you check out the fact that the little piece of heaven provides you with a real time, up-to-the-minute info-graphic of where people are talking about the word intrapreneur in Twitter, and that clicking on the TPS logo will take you to myTPSreport.com so that you can interact in the stream of consciousness, that is going on around that search term, with people near and far:
As an added bonus, while setting up this display of awesomeness for you to behold, I discovered a great post by Ben Casnocha called, The Intrapreneur’s 10 Commandments that you should totally read. My personal favorite is number two: Circumvent any orders aimed at stopping your dream.
Greg and I have had talks about my performance regarding that one…
