Organizational Learning Guide

Author(s): Frank Trovato, David Xu

Incorporating lessons learned has been proven to significantly improve an organization's ability to successfully manage future crises. Use this template to guide identifying lessons learned from a crisis or crisis management plan testing exercise. Specifically, this template provides guidelines to capture:

  • Timeline of Events (e.g. who was the first responder, what caused the event, when was the CMT notified?)
  • Process Review (e.g. were process steps followed?)
  • Action Items (e.g. what tasks have to be completed to incorporate lessons learned?)

Use this template to drive crisis management improvement in your organization.
