Supporting employee entrepreneurship is a significant challenge for contemporary organizations. Researchers have delved into various aspects of corporate entrepreneurship, and the field's body of knowledge is rapidly expanding. However, there remain knowledge and research gaps that need to be addressed. One area that requires further exploration is the relationship between human resource management (HRM) and corporate entrepreneurship. While studies have linked HRM to corporate entrepreneurship, there is a need for studies to examine the connections between corporate social responsibility (CSR)-oriented practices and corporate/employee entrepreneurship.

The primary objective of this book is to elucidate the relationships between corporate volunteering and employee entrepreneurship within organizations. By combining two vibrant fields of research: entrepreneurship and corporate social responsibility, the authors present how participation in corporate volunteering, as one of the CSR practices in organizations, fosters the development of employee entrepreneurial behavior. The book offers a comprehensive framework that highlights the role of CSR practices in shaping the entrepreneurial and innovative mindset of employees.

This book is primarily designed for postgraduates, researchers, and academics specializing in entrepreneurship and corporate volunteering. Its relevance extends to master's level students at universities or business schools, as well as business practitioners, due to its significance in managerial education and management.
