Title: Public entrepreneurship
Description: Public entrepreneurship is the process of introducing innovation, the generation and      implementation of new ideas, in the public sector. Building on this definition and drawing      from a logical tree, four types of public sector entrepreneurs are identified: policy      entrepreneurs, bureaucratic entrepreneurs, executive entrepreneurs; and political      entrepreneurs. Policy Entrepreneurs, outside the formal positions of government,      introduce and facilitate the implementation of new ideas into the public sector.      Bureaucratic Entrepreneurs occupy non-leadership positions in government and introduce      and implement new ideas from their particular vantage point in public organizations.      Executive Entrepreneurs from their leadership positions in governmental agencies and      departments, generate and implement new ideas; and finally, Political Entrepreneur      introduce and implement new ideas as holders of elective office.
