Abstract: This study aims at exploring the factors supporting corporate entrepreneurs hip as perceived by the employees. A pool of variables was formed and refined using literature survey. The questionnaire designed from this pool was administered to the managers of three firms having a successful record of corporate entrepreneur ship. The data analysis suggests four dimensions supporting corporate entrepreneurship - organisational system, team spirit, leaders' support and empowerment. The results further suggest that firms need not to overemphasise rewards and freedom to employee, rather strive to create a supportive organisational structure along with a collaborative work environment and support from leaders in the entrepreneurial initiatives. The implications of the study and future research directions are also discussed in this paper.
