Sprint Retrospective agenda

  1. 1
    Set the tone

    Make it safe to be honest; this is about the process, not blame.

  2. 2
    What went well

    Capture the things worth keeping.

  3. 3
    What didn't

    Name the friction points candidly.

  4. 4
    Decide improvements

    Pick one or two changes to actually try — each with an owner.

  5. 5
    Review last retro's actions

    Did the improvements from last time happen?

How Wisprnote AI helps

Wisprnote AI captures the agreed improvements as owned action items and, because it remembers across meetings, lets you check at the next retro whether last time's actions were actually completed — closing the loop that most retros leave open.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good retrospective format?

A simple "what went well / what didn't / what we'll change" works well, ending with one or two owned improvements and a review of whether last retro's actions happened.

How do you make retrospective action items stick?

Assign an owner to each improvement and review it at the next retro. Wisprnote AI tracks these across meetings so they don't get forgotten.

Never write up this meeting again.
