How to run a simple retrospective

  1. Give the session a clear title and review the period or project together.
  2. Add concise observations under Went well and Could improve.
  3. Turn the most useful discussion points into specific Next actions.
  4. Review the action column at the start of the next retrospective.

From reflection to action

A balanced retro celebrates repeatable strengths, makes problems discussable, and finishes with a small number of practical commitments. Phrase notes around processes and outcomes rather than individuals.

FAQ

What is a retrospective board?

It is a structured space for reflecting on recent work, recognizing wins, identifying improvements, and agreeing on next actions.

When should a team run a retrospective?

Teams commonly reflect after a sprint, milestone, event, or project, while the experience is still fresh.

What makes a useful action item?

Use a specific, achievable next step with an owner and a time to revisit it during your team discussion.

Can I remove a note?

Yes. Use Remove on any card, or clear all three columns to begin a new board.

Is the board collaborative?

This version is designed for one shared screen or facilitator. It does not synchronize notes between different devices.
