Answer:

Skunkworks.

Explanation:

In the context of promoting organizational learning and intrapreneurship, the idea behind the role of Skunkworks is that, if intrapreneurs are isolated, they will become so intensely involved in a project that development time will be relatively brief and the quality of the final product will be enhanced.

A Skunkworks project typically represents an innovative project comprising of a loosely structured small group of people, usually outside the research and development departments of an organization. The Skunkworks is made up of well seasoned individuals or experts who research, quickly design or develop, and test innovative solutions for a project in order to enhance radical innovation.

As a result, isolating the intrapreneurs would enhance the rapid development and quality of the final product in a project.

Please note, Skunkworks has its origination from Martin Lockheed's World War II Skunkworks in the Advanced Development Projects (ADP).
