Ÿ The fact that limited empirical research has been conducted in the public sector is a limitation on its own as the researchers found it difficult to make comparative analyses of the research results.
Ÿ Due to the type of questions used (fixed alternative questions) there were response bias such as acquiescence and extremity bias whereby the respondents agreed with all the questions to indicate positive connotation to new ideas, and other respondents used extremes when answering questions.
Ÿ The fact that it was not possible to control extraneous factors in the environment such as noise also served as a limitation.
SUGGESTIONS FOR FUTURE RESEARCH
The same study is to be conducted in various regions and departments of the public sector in South Africa. This will give a more representative picture of the state of corporate entrepreneurship in the public sector. The Corporate Entrepreneurial Assessment Instrument (CEAI) to be re tested to establish its internal consistency as the Cronbach value in this study with regard to the construct on time availability resulted in questionable internal consistency. There was difficulty with the measuring instrument (CEAI) and the construct on time availability was unable to be analysed on its own, hence the questions under that constructs were analysed individually.
