Design Sprint Retrogram
A design sprint retrospective is a team meeting focused on improving the design sprint experience and the sprint results.
The design sprint retro (short for retrospective) occurs at the end of each Design Sprint and enables the team to reflect on their sprint experience and share their honest feedback on what went well, what were some challenges, and what should be done better next time.
With our Design Sprint Retrogram Template, facilitators can efficiently highlight opportunities for change and generate meaningful improvements on areas like:
Remote Design Sprint format and schedule (offline vs. online sessions, number of sprint days, daily plan, the team size and structure);
Team collaboration (communication, decision-making, team alignment, engagement, inclusivity, accountability, trust, psychological safety);
Design Sprint Results (the long-term goal, sprint questions, solution sketches, prototype, user testing).
Any Design Sprint Facilitator can use our template to wrap up their design sprints and optimize their next one.
Here's how the 1-hour workshop is structured:
Welcome & congratulate the team for their achievements
Short warm-up
Quick overview of the Design Sprint week
Design Sprint Retrogram overview
Three-step reflection: Highs, Lows, Whishes
Facilitation Notes: If this is your first time doing a design sprint retrospective, we've also included facilitation notes to help you navigate the board. We recommend deleting them before starting the actual workshop.

Quick Retrospective Template
Works best for:
Education, Retrospectives, Meetings
A retrospective template empowers you to run insightful meetings, take stock of your work, and iterate effectively. The term “retrospective” has gained popularity over the more common “debriefing” and “post-mortem,” since it’s more value-neutral than the other terms. Some teams refer to these meetings as “sprint retrospectives” or “iteration retrospectives,” “agile retrospectives” or “iteration retrospectives.” Whether you are a scrum team, using the agile methodology, or doing a specific type of retrospective (e.g. a mad, sad, glad retrospective), the goals are generally the same: discovering what went well, identifying the root cause of problems you had, and finding ways to do better in the next iteration.
Canvas Playground Template
Works best for:
Templates
The canvas playground template is the ultimate way to explore all the features that make up Miro's Intelligent Canvas.
