Retrospective for your projects

By -
As many of us will be working on the Agile projects, and we attend retrospective meetings with all stakeholders.

I found this template is very useful to use/make notes every day. This can be used for your sprints or project release.



          RETRO 😦

RE-INFORCE
Things that went well, that were positive that will need attention and effort to keep doing or to amplify.
EXPLORE
Evaluate an existing experiment or discuss something that could use improvement.

TRY
Any new ideas for things to try that might improve the way the group works
REMOVE
Suggestions for anything to stop doing, This includes behavior, process, policies, meetings
Observe
Anything that group is unsure of but wants to actively monitor. This should include any active experiments but also the impacts or interactions of any behavior, processes, policies, meetings, structures, that affect the group of its people


This was inspired from https://blog.scatterspoke.com/yet-another-retro-format/  


And a good book to learn about Retrospectives:

It started with an example: The Owner provides the house or Place of Residence to the Tenants. "Rent Agreement" is provided for the house and It contains agreement to use the house. The house comes with like kitchen, living room, bed room, fans, geysers etc.. It also contains who resides and what is the contractual period, obligation (money) etc..
