Abstract: By means of an exploratory analysis based on six specific case studies that are representative of the French approach to employee-driven innovation (EDI), this article demonstrates that EDI can mean very different things in different organizations. In the first part of the article, the reasons why businesses choose to adopt structured approaches that foster EDI will be reviewed. The second part describes the conceptual prism through which approaches to employee-driven innovation are analysed, while the third part outlines the methodology underlying the study. In the fourth section, case studies illustrating the variety of EDI approaches are presented. The penultimate section features an examination of the factors which differentiate the various modes of existence of structured approaches to EDI. The article concludes with a discussion of the results obtained.
