Festival Retrospective
The festival themed retrospective has been designed using the metaphors and common areas of a festival for teams to share ideas and key themes
The retrospective is broken up into four main areas:
The Main Stage - highlights of the sprint/iteration; things that went well and that the team enjoyed
Fortune Teller - things we wish we knew at the start
First Aid Tent - pain points; things that perhaps didn't go as well as we'd have hoped
Actions - how can we make the next sprint/iteration better?
Use the blank post-it templates available and some of the example post-its as a starter and work your way around the board from Main Stage, to Fortune Teller, to the First Aid Tent, where the pain points identified by the team help to drive conversation and insight into the final Actions section.
Enjoy!

Daily Stand-up Meeting Template
Works best for:
Agile Methodology, Meetings, Software Development
The entire team meets to review the day before and discuss the day ahead. These daily meetings, also known as “scrums,” are brief but powerful — they identify roadblocks, give each team member a voice, foster collaboration, keep progress on track, and ultimately keep teams working together effectively. This template makes it so easy for you to plan daily standups for your sprint team. It all starts with picking a date and time, creating an agenda, and sticking with the same format throughout the sprint.
