Conditions of implementation of employee-driven innovation

Abstract

This paper discusses the opportunities and barriers for the transfer of employees' ideas to implementation of new solutions in employee-driven innovation. The theoretical approach is the existing research not only on innovation transfer but also on the transfer of learning, knowledge and technology. Based on the results from an action research project aimed at training and involving shop-floor employees in employee-driven innovation, the paper identifies five factors that have been crucial to the process of transfer from employees' ideas to new solutions in production. The paper discusses five factors for transfer compared with existing literature and knowledge on employee-driven innovation.
