Lessons Management (2019)

A$55.00GST inclusive

AIDR’s Lessons Management Handbook provides a national reference, principles and guidance for the practice of managing lessons. The process of managing lessons is integral to the continuous improvement of organisational capability and individual learning.

Lessons management is an overarching term that refers to collecting, analysing, disseminating and applying learning experiences from events, exercises, programs and reviews. These learning experiences include those that should be sustained and those that need to improve. The goal of this activity is ongoing improvement by organisations and the people who work for them. Organisational growth and continuous improvement are particularly relevant where preservation of life is the primary goal.

The handbook is primarily aimed at the emergency management sector, although the principles and processes can be used by any sector or organisation. It will be relevant to all levels of an organisation, including:

  • knowledge and lessons practitioners
  • individuals, supervisors, managers and leaders seeking to collect, analyse and share lessons in industry, in organisations, jurisdictions or across sectors
  • learning and development professionals

 

PDF’s of all handbooks are freely available to download on the Australian Disaster Resilience Knowledge Hub: https://knowledge.aidr.org.au/collections/handbook-collection/
