ENERGIZING RETROSPECTIVE — ENERGIZE YOUR TEAM RETROSPECTIVE WITH THIS EASY EXERCISE

Energizing Retrospective — Energize Your Team Retrospective With This Easy Exercise
If you perform retrospective regularly you will know that each retrospective is different. Some retrospectives are fun, some serious, some are off the track and not really related to the team.
Most of us wish that a retrospective will leave us energized and super excited to get going on actions. Sam and Karen from Growing Agile follow an exercise for an energizing retrospective. Take a look at the structure of the exercise below.
Energizing Retrospective — Energize Your Team Retrospective With This Easy Exercise
Check-in [3 min per person]
Karen and Same use sticky notes with the following 6 headings: Be Brave, Be Kind, Be Yourself, Be Involved, Be Amazing, Be Accepting. You are free to use your own or just use ours. You can choose different colours to represent different things.
Now, ask each person to write one statement per sticky note about the past month (or sprint) and then ask everyone to share what they wrote for each.
