Lessons Learned Workshop

Lessons Learned Workshop

A workshop is an opportunity for the project team members and stakeholders to get together and discuss lessons learned. The key text The Basics of Project Evaluation and Lessons Learned by Willis H. Thomas, PMP provides implementation guidelines.

Facilitation

There can be a substantial benefit in selecting an external facilitator to support the workshop to ensure opinions remain objective.

Layout

The room layout is an important consideration, depending upon the size of the group and personality styles of contributors.

Duration

The workshop can be a half-day or full day event depending upon the agenda.

Resources

The Project Evaluation Resource Kit (PERK) provided free with the key text contains the necessary resources to support workshop delivery.
