The objective of this study is twofold: first, to investigate how organizations encourage factors that have an impact on employees' entrepreneurial behavior from employee's perspectives and experiences; and second, to discover how and why employees behave entrepreneurially within the organization. A case study method is considered as an appropriate approach to scrutinize intrapreneurial behavior because it principally concentrates on an investigation into a contemporary organizational phenomenon and context concerning entrepreneurial activities in-depth within its real situation. In data collection, an Asian multinational retail company was selected. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with 24 executive-level employees who had been working in various departments for more than 5 years. Each in-depth interview lasts for a duration of 40 to 60 minutes. The results reveal several understandings into the combination of individual-level and organizational-level factors that promote the intrapreneurial behavior and activities of the established firm in the context of Thailand. In this regard, six factors have been found as the key determinants that make an impact on innovativeness, proactiveness, and risk-taking behaviour of the employees. Those factors are personal preference, organizational stability, management support, compensation, reward system, teamwork, quality of relationship with colleagues, work autonomy and the quality of relationship with the superiors.

In the pursuit of sustained innovation within industries, the consistent emergence of high-growth potential startups is imperative. Despite the government's implementation of diverse investment-based policies aimed at fostering startup initiation, the inherent probability of post-establishment failure for startups remains substantial. This study examines the impact of internal factors on organizational commitment and corporate performance in startups. It emphasizes the significance of learning and networking orientation for commitment across various organizational aspects. Innovativeness affects emotional and normative commitment but not continuance commitment. Financial attributes and global orientation influence continuance commitment, while affective and continuance commitment significantly impact startup performance. Normative cohesion, however, does not significantly affect performance. These findings offer insights for optimizing human resource utilization in startups, benefiting both companies and governments in the evolving startup landscape.

This research explores the factors affecting infusion of public administrative information systems(IS) and analyzes its impact on work performance. For this purpose, the factors affecting the infusion of IS are classified into voluntary and involuntary motivations based on the self-determination theory that explains individual motivations. As factors for voluntary motivation, performance expectancy, personal innovativeness, and organizational citizenship behavior are proposed, while government influence, competitor influence, and the top-level management influence are proposed as factors for involuntary motivation. The analysis shows the voluntary motivation factors-performance expectancy, personal innovativeness, and organizational citizenship behavior-do affect infusion of IS, whereas the involuntary motivation factors-government influence, competitor influence, and the top-level management influence-have no statistically significant impact on the infusion of IS. The relationship between infusion of IS and work performance is found significant. While individuals are unable to decide on the adoption of IS in an involuntary environment such as in the case of using the public administrative IS, the results show that the factors related to individual autonomy have an important role in extended, active usage of IS beyond the mandatory level.
