Abstract
The history of the field of transplantation — as well as the growth of individual transplant centers — represents an evolution from innovators and entrepreneurs toward a corporate culture that achieves high reliability and compliance. This chapter discusses the advantages and disadvantages of this evolution and presents guiding principles for a transplant center built on “intrapreneurship”, leveraging the best of both cultures to allow for a highly reliable program that is still an engine of innovation.
