Learning Innovations Laboratory (LILA)


Harvard's LILA is a collaborative learning community of business leaders and Harvard researchers who build insights into the strategic challenge of supporting learning and innovation in today's global organizations. LILA's members consist of twenty executives, many of whom hold CLO, CKO or HR titles, from a diversity of top organizations such as Cisco, Humana, US Army, World Bank, Raytheon, SAS YMCA and Deloitte. These executives meet for quarterly meetings at Project Zero with a range of leading faculty from Harvard and other institutions who conduct research on topics related to the challenges LILA members face--such as to leadership & talent development, organizational learning, and communities of practice. Over the past five years, LILA has included leading thinkers such as Chris Argyris, Warren Bennis, John Seely Brown, Linda Hill, Rosabeth Moss Kanter, David Garvin, and Etienne Wenger.

LILA is a laboratory in which organizational leaders, researchers and Harvard faculty share their innovative practices and practical challenges for feedback and assistance. LILA creates a confidential learning community that:

Collaboratively Finds & Solves Problems: Members share innovative practices and build strategies to solve the challenges they face across industries.

Captures Insights: The community harvests key lessons from the cutting-edge research and the practical experiences of its members.

Creates Usable Knowledge: Members explore methods and models that can be adapted to suit a variety of organizational contexts.

Has Practical Impact: Members support one another in making real advances in the challenges they face in their organization.
