[ Lessons Learnt ]

I’ve been a keen supporter of the idea of “lessons learnt” sessions.  Getting the team together to review the project afterwards sounds good in theory.

Being currently involved in a well-planned project that was thought through in detail, but has still gone (slightly) bad, makes me appreciate how hard a “lessons learnt” session would be, for those who experienced the lessons. 

I’m experiencing the pain and frustration of having done plenty of planning, and still, things haven’t gone to plan.  Putting these ‘lessons’ up in front of a crowd of peers, for all to evaluate, would be a daunting thing.
