2- THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
Literature review in the field of organizational entrepreneurship expresses that organizational entrepreneurship is a complex and multidimensional concept which has numerous dimensions and elements.  Schipers et al (2008) and Milz et al’s (2009) suggest that these elements are four dimensions including innovation, pro-activeness, self-renewal and risk taking. Innovation is the production and creation of new products, services, processes, technologies and models of business. Pro-activeness means the forecasting and acting to meet future needs through the search and use of opportunities that implies the development of products. Self-renewal in the organization needs to change and reform in organizational mission, reorganization and making big changes in organizational system. Risk taking includes the organizational readiness for employing resources in order to use opportunities and starting projects without knowing the results and return of investment.
