The retrospective process - REVIEW
Reviewing the team’s action plan is a great way to wrap up your retrospective and allows everyone to review:
- ACTION ITEMS - from the current and previous retrospectives.
- COMMENTS - made by participants.
- TEAM AGREEMENTS - accepted team agreements from current and previous meetings.
- PARKING LOT - items yet to be discussed.
Reviewing action items
- You can review both current and previous action times.
- You can accept or reject any outstanding proposed action items.
- You can mark off completed items or add new action items.
- If you haven't already done so, you can assign priority, owners, and due dates to each item.
GROUP BY IDEA if you wish to see the idea(s) the action item originated from, for extra context.
Enable SHOW PUBLISHED if you have integrated with other workflow tools and have published action items there.
- The Facilitator can choose who can add actions by selecting either FACILITATORS CAN ADD ACTIONS, EVERYONE CAN ADD ACTIONS, OR EVERYONE CAN PROPOSE ACTIONS.
Reviewing Team Agreements
- Review and reflect on team agreements to determine if the team remains satisfied with them and feels they are upholding these commitments.
- Add new team agreements.
Reviewing Parked Items
- If you had any parked items during the meeting, it may be a good time to review them now.
- You can COPY TO CLIPBOARD, CONVERT TO ACTION, CONVERT TO AGREEMENT, or UNPARK the item. Unparking the item returns it to its original meeting position.
- You can delete parked items if they were added via the side panel.
- At any time, use PRESENT mode on any section to synchronize everybody's screen. This will ensure all participants are on the same page...literally!
- Once the REVIEW has been completed, it’s time to CLOSE the retrospective.
