In the last few years, a lot of people approached me with questions about agile retrospectives. Interestingly, some of the questions are asked over and over again. So I’d like to use this chance to answer the most asked questions about this topic.
Where to get ideas/activities for retrospectives?
There are many places nowadays, to get ideas for retrospectives. If I search for some ideas how to facilitate my next retrospective, I love to use the so-called “Retromat.” It is a website which randomly generates a plan for your next retrospective. If you don’t like one of the proposals, you can easily skip browsing through the catalog to find your best fit.
Another place to look online is the “Retrospective Wiki.” The list of activities is not that big, but there are some nice gems, you can use.
If you prefer to read a book, I can recommend the following:
