How to run a retro meeting in Miro

agile_retrospective_how-to-image_EN_standard_1_1

1. Collect feedback

Kick things off by getting all the feedback and ideas out there. Set a timer and use private mode to avoid group bias when adding sticky notes to the retro board.

2. Cluster ideas

Once you've got all the input, start clustering similar notes and themes together by keywords or sentiment with Miro Assist or ask your team to group the sticky notes together themselves.

3. Choose the most pressing issues

With a clear view of all the feedback, decide as a team what deserves your focus first. Prioritize the most impactful and urgent items using voting.

4. Plan what’s next

Map out concrete next steps and schedule a follow-up meeting to check progress. With cards, assign owners, due dates, and sync with your development tools such as Jira and Azure DevOps to start executing.

Retrospective FAQs

Why should I use Miro to create a retrospective?

Miro’s collaborative platform has many features that help you to run engaging, fun retrospective meetings without the hassle of switching tools to review the successes and challenges of a project, sprint, or quarter. Miro’s retrospective boards are easy to create and share, so you and your team can collaborate and track progress quicker than ever.

When should a retrospective meeting be held?

To track team health and improve processes, run retrospective meetings whenever you finish a sprint, project, or quarter. It’s a great way to keep tabs on how efficient your workflows are and the challenges teams face daily. Miro’s retrospective tool helps create a comfortable and safe space, so everyone can give feedback without reproach or criticism. Use the voting feature to evaluate the most pressing topics and ask for feedback, so everyone’s opinion is heard. And remember, the retrospective meeting should be planned ahead of time and include a facilitator who can guide the conversation and help the team focus on the right topics.

What are the three retrospective questions?

A retrospective board helps teams reflect on their past performance and identify areas of improvement. The three key questions often asked during a retrospective are: What went well? What could have gone better? How should we do it differently? Asking these questions encourages teams to take a step back, evaluate their past performance, and quickly take action. Using a retrospective tool helps to ensure that the team is continuously learning and growing. Afterward, you have the means to create actionable points and develop a plan to implement changes and iterate processes.
