Abstract

This chapter explores expectations, manifestations and constraints of employee-driven innovation (EDI) in communities that focus on technology development. Empirically, the study is based on an analysis of case studies on three different types of work communities in the domains of chemical technology, process technology and measurement technology. These kinds of communities can often be regarded as privileged regarding innovating because their members are expected to innovate as part of their daily work.
