The purpose of this study has been to generate an understanding of experience feedback in organizations in the construction industry and examine what motivates and inhibits this. The study was conducted as an inductive qualitative interview study. In-depth interviews were consequently conducted with nine project managers in the construction industry and the data were then analyzed thematically. The data analysis resulted in three different themes: (1) Experience - organizational but person-dependent, (2) Personal drive or an imposed requirement and (3) The desire to move forward. The results showed that the structure of organizations' feedback on experience differs. It is more organized in some organizations and not even a requirement in others. The time perspective, the prevailing pandemic linked to the fact that much of the knowledge is person-dependent and that it is not a requirement from management are challenges that the study identifies linked to experience feedback in organizations in the construction industry. The driving force to share their experiences with colleagues that has been distinguished as the most prominent is the desire to make it easier for colleagues in the future and that the process will not have to be reinvented.
