Abstract:
This study aimed to evaluate the entrepreneurial spirit, employee maturity, and work environment of employees in Chinese engineering enterprises which was made the basis in developing an entrepreneurial mind-set framework for employees. Descriptive research was adopted in the study using self-made questionnaire. The self-made questionnaire in this study allowed the researcher to collect specific and relevant data on entrepreneurship, employee maturity, and work environment, providing valuable information for the study. The 505 managerial and non-managerial employees were selected as respondents in the 50 engineering firms because they represented different levels within an organization and may have different perspectives on entrepreneurial thinking. Managerial and non-managerial employees have different roles and responsibilities within an organization. Based from the results, the respondents had moderate agreement on their entrepreneurial spirit as to vision and drive, leadership and proactivity. They demonstrated a solid foundation in their maturity as to their self-management, adaptability and resilience. There was moderate level of agreement on the respondents work environment as to physical, social and cultural environment.
