We address this gap investigating role corporate entrepreneurship (CE) as a panacea such challenges, driven past indications CE's viability strategy promoting transitions sustainability. Using longitudinal qualitative research design, we collected data via Prolific Academic from 53 participants based multiple countries through open-ended essays over two months. Analyzing following Gioia method, find three main affecting transitions: (a) knowledge management, (b) stakeholder support, (c) resource constraints. Five CE strategic choice-related factors found vitally facilitate assist firm employees overcoming identified challenges. findings highlight important implications organizations, emphasizing need integrate entrepreneurial activities with initiatives prompting further optimization, dissemination, education enhance awareness.
