The Ultimate Retrospective Template

In short: The ultimate retrospective template bundles ten retro methods, from the Team Clock to the Weather Report to the OKR retro, plus a template for summarizing tasks and actions. It helps any team look back together and turn what they learn into concrete next steps.

Retrospectives are a powerful method for team development. Originally from the agile world, we believe they're valuable for every team.

But how do you get started? A flipchart is often enough, but our retrospective template can also help you find your way into the method.

Retrospectives Are Good for Every Team

Looking back together, seeing what went well, what could be better, and how you can grow together from those experiences and insights, will move you forward. Retrospectives are also a solid building block for a reliable team execution rhythm, when review, learning, and the next round follow one another regularly.

The Different Retro Methods Keep Things Fresh

There are countless retro methods, and it's good to try something new every now and then. Options range from a simple Weather Report (sun to thunderstorm, depending on mood) to extensive workshops built around questions on a specific topic.

With our retrospective template, you get:

• Ten retrospective templates and guides, for example the Team Clock, Good and Better, Weather Report, Happiness Game, Starfish, Superhero, and a full-scale OKR retro
• A template for summarizing the retrospective and the tasks and actions derived from it
