There is a growing consensus in the literature that established firms need to nurture entrepreneurship throughout their operations. In fact, corporate entrepreneurship, the discovery and pursuit of new opportunities through new business creation, is an important source of competitive advantage. Corporate entrepreneurship involves a diverse set of activities. For example, corporate entrepreneurship needs the ongoing acquisition and development of new resources. In this paper, we examine how corporate entrepreneur shape one's career (skill, network, motivation or identity) in a company which is so-called bureaucratic organization. We have a reason why we intent not to test corporate entrepreneur's career theory but build corporate entrepreneur's career theory. In fact, we know a lot of previous studies of corporate entrepreneur such as characteristics, political skills except corporate entrepreneur's career theory therefore we use career capital and career competency concept to analyze corporate entrepreneur's career. We have a reason why we intent to select the bureaucratic organization's case. In fact, we know a lot of previous studies of corporate entrepreneur in a corporate culture which is supportive to the new business creation such as 3M, however, we don't know anything previous studies of corporate entrepreneur in a bureaucratic organization. Even more, we don't know anything previous studies of corporate entrepreneur's career in a bureaucratic organization in other words, our research is exploratory data analysis. Our results show that we have three important hypothetical career in order to nurture corporate entrepreneur in the bureaucratic organization. First, we have learning from unforeseen job rotation. Second, we have know-how which deals with politically-motivated situation in order to complement know-how which deals with people who have the authority. Third, we have trial and error out on a limb.
