Description
After action review (AAR) is a process used to capture and evaluate lessons learned from an action/project/activity. It takes the form of a quick and formal/informal review and discussion at the end of a project or at a key stage within a project or other activity. After-action review allows participants to learn how to sustain strengths and improve on weaknesses in subsequent tasks or projects. It is used to help teams to learn quickly from their successes and failures and share their learning with other teams. It enable
- Decide what action should be taken next in similar situations.
The discussions should typically cover:
- What happened and why;
- What went well or better than expected;
- What development issues occurred that require improvement;
- What lessons can be learned from the experience for the next project.
In R&D organizations, much work results in the creation of new knowledge. By formalizing the way this knowledge is extracted and recorded, it can readily be made available to colleagues and other organizations facing similar challenges. AAR therefore provides a simple and quick way of making an informed decision about how to approach the next project or study.
