20 learning curve
Gen Mgt [m1]1. a graphic representation of the acquisition of knowledge or experience over time. A steep learning curve reflects a substantial amount of learning in a short time, and a shallow curve reflects a slower learning process. The curve eventually levels out to a plateau, during which time the knowledge gained is being consolidated.2. the proportional decrease in effort when production is doubled. The learning curve has its origin in productivity research in the airplane industry of the 1930s, when T. P. Wright discovered that in assembling an aircraft, the time and effort decreased by 20% each time the cumulative number of planes produced doubled. Bruce Henderson of the Boston Consulting Group formulated the learning curve as a strategic planning device in the 1960s by plotting product costs against cumulative volume.
