Definition taken from Nos compétences fortes
The ability to learn from one’s experiences reflects the ability of individuals to improve continually, and to draw lessons from their successes and failures.
This skill refers to two personality traits in individuals: their willingness to learn and their ability to draw lessons from experience.
These personality traits are found among individuals who take a reflexive attitude toward their choices and actions. By trying to understand what was effective and what was not, they are able to learn from their own experiences. They draw lessons that are useful in new action contexts. They thereby avoid repeating mistakes of the past. Also, they have tools to change their ways of doing things and improve their practices.
