Review
Derived from the Go term for post-game analysis, 'Review' has evolved into a structured, evidence-based method for turning past experiences into actionable growth—for both individuals and organizations. Popularized by Lenovo founder Liu Chuanzhi, this framework goes beyond generic work summaries: it requires teams to revisit goals, compare actual outcomes, dig into root causes of gaps, and translate lessons into concrete next steps. Unlike routine summaries that focus on performance bragging, Review prioritizes learning, collaborative discussion, and factual accuracy. Drawing on real-world examples from the U.S. military’s After-Action Reviews (AAR), British Petroleum’s project post-mortems, and Lenovo’s decades of corporate practice, this book breaks down how to implement Review across personal tasks, team activities, large-scale projects, and strategic planning. It addresses common misconceptions, provides step-by-step guides, and shows how to embed Review into company culture to build a self-improving learning organization that avoids repeating mistakes and drives consistent performance gains.
