Notes HOW TO GET STARTED IN <strong>LESSONS</strong> <strong>LEARNED</strong>! You are already on the right track having read this far through this NATO LL Handbook. However, this handbook is not the only resource available to help you get started. The following NATO resources are available: Fundamental NATO Lessons Learned References Fundamental NATO Lessons Learned References NATO Lessons Learned Policy (Reference A). The two Strategic Commanders' (Bi-SC) Directive 080-006 Lessons Learned (Reference C). Allied Command Operations (ACO) Directive 080-001 Lessons Learned (Reference D). You should read and familiarize yourself with these fundamental NATO LL references: NATO LL Policy is applicable to all NATO bodies, agencies and staffs, and acts as a guide to Allies and non-NATO nations contributing to NATO-led operations. It establishes the basic principles of an Alliancewide approach to learning lessons in order to ensure transparency and a common understanding of its intent. It provides guidance on the exchange of LL information with other international organizations and establishes LL roles and responsibilities within NATO HQ (the International Staff (IS) and the International Military Staff (IMS)) and on the interaction between NATO HQ, Allied and the Strategic Commands. The two Strategic Commands' (Bi-SC) Directive 080-006 Lessons Learned is applicable to all HQs and organizations within Allied Command Operations (ACO) and Allied Command Transformation (ACT). It defines a LL capability, identifies four critical success factors that influence the effectiveness of a LL capability, establishes a standardized and coordinated approach to the NATO LL process, and details roles and responsibilities at the strategic level. ACO Directive 080-001 Lessons Learned is applicable to all levels of ACO HQs and to SHAPE divisions. It provides additional guidance and direction for the implementation of the LL process within ACO and is a supplement to the Bi-SC Directive 080-006. HQ SACT Directive 080-002 Internal Lessons Learned which establishes the HQ SACT internal LL capability (structure, process, and tools) in order to help improve the HQ’s products, procedures, and organization. Lessons Learned Staff Officer Training LLSOs should attend the week-long NATO LLSO Course. Courses are offered three times a year. More information can be found via the SWEDINT website 3 . Individual nations may also offer LL training as part of their national training programmes. If you have any questions regarding the LLSO Course, please contact the JALLC POC at natollsoc@jallc.nato.int. 3 http://www.forsvarsmakten.se/en/swedint/information-to-admittedstudents/nato_ll_soc/ 6
Lessons Learned Officer of Primary Responsibility Online Course The Lessons Learned Officer of Primary Responsibility (LLOPR) Course is an online course, tailored to NATO LLOPR's needs. It was developed by the JALLC, supported by and in close coordination with Allied Command Transformation’s Joint Force Trainer and with the contribution of Lessons Learned specialists. The aim of the course is to provide LLOPRs with the basic LL knowledge necessary to fulfil their duties and it is a prerequisite to attend the NATO LLSO Course. The course is available on the Joint Advanced Distribution Learning (JADL) platform (https://jadl.act.nato.int) at Courses - NATO Courses - Allied Command Transformation - JALLC, ID: ADL 138. Notes Using This NATO Lessons Learned Handbook This handbook is divided into seven chapters advising on various aspects of being a competent LLSO and contains annexes with helpful examples and templates. Chapter 2 provides an overview of a LL process based on the NATO LL Policy, gives definitions, and outlines some of the actors involved in the NATO LL process. Chapter 3 gives guidance on gathering observations and introduces a template for gathering and documenting lessons. Chapter 4 guides on the process of analysis that facilitates development of observations into useful lessons. Chapter 5 offers practical advice on management of the remedial action process to ensure lessons are truly learned. Chapter 6 describes LL Information Sharing and the LL Community. Chapter 7 gives a summary of this handbook and where to go for more information. Annexes provide additional guidance and examples to help you develop your competence as a LLSO: Annex A: Lessons Learned Glossary Annex B: Observation, Discussion, Conclusion, Recommendation Template Annex C: Example lessons learned in the observation, discussion, conclusion and recommendation lesson template that is advocated by this handbook Annex D: Interview Process Annex E: LL Capability Checklist We advise you to read all chapters quickly and then go back through and make notes regarding how the concepts presented relate to your role and your organization specifically. We’ve even included a handy big margin for you to add your notes. The annexes can be used to increase your understanding and support your daily work as appropriate. Each chapter has some introductory remarks and concludes with a summary of the chapter contents in bullet form. Boxes are used to highlight additional information about particular subjects and make tips stand out. 7
