What is Team Input?

Team Input has been designed as your team's reflective space to support your Retrospective ceremonies, or however and whenever you review how you're performing together.

It follows a very simple format, asking three questions to guide everyone's individual or collective reflections on how they think they performed for the iteration just completed:

  1. What went well?

  2. What held us back?

  3. What should we do next?

By capturing a log of everybody's input, it becomes easy to scroll back through prior Team Input pages to view any recurring themes that may be repeating, and set an experiment or action to remediate or try something different.

When to use it

A new Team Input page is automatically created within each new Active Cycle or iteration. It is date stamped according to that iterations start and end date. This allows the team to capture comments asynchronously throughout the sprint as events occur that they want to discuss in their Retro or review meeting. Alternatively, teams can add comments together prior to meeting for their Retro, or during their Retro itself.

How to use it

Click your curser in the 'Share your thoughts' field to start adding your comments.
Feel free to add some colour and fun with the use of emojis!

We find team members will answer from both their individual perspective, as well as how they think they performed as a team.

Any comments left in the 'Act' column are carried over into each new iteration Team Input page, until the box is checked in the card to mark the action as done.

If you conduct your Retro or Review meetings in other tools, simply copy the URL from the specific page or space within your preferred tool and paste the link here. This ensures team context and notes can be pinned and collated with their metric results.
