The Power of Applying What Others Have Learned

Abstract: A key to competitive advantage is translating learnings into action. Aventis wanted to ensure that ‘lessons learned’ and ‘best practices’ were systematically generated, captured, transferred and applied across teams, functions, and geographies. Through internal and external benchmarking, practice, and experimentation, Aventis implemented a global process for using ‘lessons learned’ to fuel continuous improvement. In this presentation, we will discuss the elements of the implementation plan, critical success factors, and impact on the business.
