Festival Retrospective
The festival themed retrospective has been designed using the metaphors and common areas of a festival for teams to share ideas and key themes
The retrospective is broken up into four main areas:
The Main Stage - highlights of the sprint/iteration; things that went well and that the team enjoyed
Fortune Teller - things we wish we knew at the start
First Aid Tent - pain points; things that perhaps didn't go as well as we'd have hoped
Actions - how can we make the next sprint/iteration better?
Use the blank post-it templates available and some of the example post-its as a starter and work your way around the board from Main Stage, to Fortune Teller, to the First Aid Tent, where the pain points identified by the team help to drive conversation and insight into the final Actions section.
Enjoy!

Design Sprint Retrogram
Works best for:
Agile, Retrospective
The Design Sprint Retrogram template facilitates retrospective sessions for Design Sprint teams to reflect on their experiences and identify improvement opportunities. It provides a structured framework for reviewing sprint outcomes, discussing what worked well, what didn't, and generating actionable insights. This template fosters a culture of continuous learning and refinement, empowering teams to enhance their sprint process and deliver better outcomes in subsequent sprints.
Feature Canvas Template
Works best for:
Design, Desk Research, Product Management
When you’re working on a new feature that solves a problem for your users, it’s easy to dive right in and start looking for solutions. However, it’s important to understand the initial user problem first. Use the Feature Canvas template to do a deep-dive into the user’s problems, the context in which they will use your feature, and the value proposition you will deliver to your users. The template enables you to spend more time exploring the problem to anticipate any potential blind spots before jumping into solutions mode.
Empathy Map Template
Works best for:
Market Research, User Experience, Mapping
Attracting new users, compelling them to try your product, and turning them into loyal customers—it all starts with understanding them. An empathy map is a tool that leads to that understanding, by giving you space to articulate everything you know about your customers, including their needs, expectations, and decision-making drivers. That way you’ll be able to challenge your assumptions and identify the gaps in your knowledge. Our template lets you easily create an empathy map divided into four key squares—what your customers Say, Think, Do, and Feel.
The 4-Step Retrospective
Works best for:
Retrospectives, Agile Methodology, Meetings
The 4-Step Retrospective template offers a simple yet effective framework for conducting retrospectives. It provides steps for reflecting on what went well, what didn't go well, what could be improved, and action planning. This template enables teams to systematically review past iterations, identify areas for growth, and implement actionable improvements. By promoting a structured approach to reflection and improvement, the 4-Step Retrospective empowers teams to drive continuous learning and enhancement effectively.
Bang for the Buck Template
Works best for:
Project Management, Strategic Planning, Prioritization
The name pretty much says it—this Agile framework is all about helping you maximize efficiency by powering collaboration between product managers and dev teams. Together you can go over each to-do on the project agenda and evaluate them in terms of costs and benefits. That way you can prioritize tasks based on how much bang for your buck they deliver. This template is great for teams and organizations that want to make a strategic plan to tackle an upcoming sprint.
