What is Employee-Driven Innovation (EDI)?

An initiative under NACE@IAL, Employee-Driven Innovation (EDI) promotes innovation through everyday employee-led improvisations of work processes, services and products. With your employees’ close proximity to the ground and customers, they are better able to initiate ideas for incremental or radical changes.

These involve aspects of change management, idea generation and idea implementation, which support an environment in which innovation does not need to follow traditional hierarchical structures.
