Recurring retrospectives

You can automatically share periodic retrospectives with your team by setting up recurring retrospectives within TeamRetro.

Setting Up a Recurring Retrospective

1. Select the appropriate team from the TEAMS tab.

2. Go to RETROSPECTIVES. Select START RETROSPECTIVE.  If the retrospective name ends with a number it will be auto-incremented.

3. Once you have selected your template, toggle on RECURRING RETROSPECTIVE. Select the frequency of your retrospectives (e.g. every week, every two weeks etc...) and click on START RETROSPECTIVE. You can also enable SEND EMAIL INVITATIONS if you wish for TeamRetro to automatically send meeting invitations upon its creation.

4. If you would like to mark a previous retrospective as recurring, click on the options (hamburger) icon on the top right within the meeting, followed by CUSTOMIZE.

5. Toggle on RECURRING RETROSPECTIVE. Select the frequency of your retrospectives (e.g. every week, every two weeks, etc...) 

Managing Your Recurring Retrospective

1. Head back to your team's RETROSPECTIVES tab.

   

2. You can disable a recurring retrospective by clicking on the three dots on the template and selecting CANCEL RECURRENCE.

   

Participating in a Recurring Retrospective

1. The day after the retrospective date, or when your retrospective is completed, TeamRetro will automatically create a new retrospective scheduled n-weeks in the future.

   

Notes

• Invitations and invite codes for recurring retrospectives always remain valid, and will take you to the most recent retrospective.
• Each team can only have a single recurring retrospective scheduled at a time.
