After Action Review (AAR) Template Project management
What is this activity?
An After Action Review (AAR) is an assessment conducted after a project or major activity that allows team members and leaders to discover (learn) what happened and why, reassess direction, and review both successes and challenges. The AAR does not have to be performed at the end of a project or activity. It can be performed after each identifiable event within a project or major activity, therefore becoming a live learning process. There's no limit on the size of the group that can participate in this exercise. And you'll need a virtual board tool like EasyRetro to run this activity.
Recommended participants: No limit

What was supposed to happen?
What was the reality?
What went well?
What did not go well?
What should be changed for next time?
How to conduct this activity
The AAR should review the tasks and goals of the activity as they were initially understood. It should also evaluate whether these tasks and goals were effective after implementing the activity. The AAR will seek to answer five key questions: 1) What was supposed to happen? 2) What was the reality? 3) What went well? 4) What did not go well? 5) What should be changed for next time? A successful AAR will result in reflection, learning, and recommendations for improvement that are applied to future projects or activities. This systematic process captures good practices and ensures that bad practices are improved upon, therefore turning projects and activities into educational experiences for the staff, which promotes continuous improvement of team services and products.
