Sprint retroThree columns, three buckets — gather, then leave with owners and dates.

Retro — Sprint <n>

Dates: <start> to <end> · Facilitator: <name>

Tip

Be specific and kind. Name the system, not the person.

Went well

<What you want to keep doing on purpose>
No-meeting Tuesdays visibly sped up deep work

Could be better

<The system that failed, not the person>
Design review became a single point of failure

Ideas

<Something worth trying for one sprint>
Rotate a second design reviewer

A loop connecting reflection, improvement, and owned actions

Action items

An action without an owner and a date is a wish.

<who> — <action>, due <date>
Maya — staff a backup design reviewer, due 2026-07-03

Notes for next time

<The thing you'll wish you had written down>

Running the retro live? The Retro deck presents these same three buckets one screen at a time.
