Definition

Concise descriptions of knowledge derived from experiences that can be communicated through mechanisms such as storytelling, debriefing etc., or summarized in databases.

Purpose and benefit

Lessons learned from a project or from a certain process show in a concise form what was done right, what should be done differently and how to improve the process and product to be more effective in the future. They are often considered a key component of, and ongoing precursor to, effective risk management.
