FLAP Retrospective – When did I try this?

Pros• Good milestone retro – after a release, end of project, PI, etc. • Lends itself well to dividing a large team into small groups• Challenging retro to keep the team engaged

Cons• A bit complicated to explain• Takes a long time to get through• Some prep work – coloured post-its and quadrants, especially

for small groups

Video Game Themed Retrospective - Pitfall

@jhyett http://jayhyett.wordpress.com.au jhyett@gmail.com

• Set the scene and ask people to draw or add to the picture.

• Explain how the format will work.

• Discuss from scorpion to swinging through trees.

• People get involved early in retro.

• Good ice breaker.

• Changing the format changes the conversation.
