Inspect and adapt team performance and identify opportunities to increase quality and effectiveness with the Arnold Schwarzenegger Retrospective

Guidance for use:

Stage 1 - Icebreaker

Paste an Arnie picture, quote or meme below to show your feelings on our last sprint. We will then discuss as a team.

Teams will then make their way around the board adding their thoughts and feelings while covering each of the themes listed:

Pumping Iron

• Where is our team strongest?

• What do we do well?

Dillon, you son of a b*tch!

• Show some love to the team!

• Who made our mission easier?

I need your clothes, boots and motorcycle

• Is there anything else we need?

• What would help us out?

Put the cookie down!

• What do we need to drop?

• Is there anything we should stop doing?

Hasta la vista, baby

• What blockers did we terminate?

• What problems were eliminated?

CIA got you pushing too many pencils?

What non-value-added waste exists and can we remove it?

Stage 3 - Action Items

Capture the actions we want to take forward from our retro session

Stage 4 - Rate the Retro

Once all areas of the board have been covered invite the team to rate the retro by placing a dot/ shape/ post-it on the appropriate rating from Bronze Knut (Waste of time) to Golden Galleon (Productive and engaging session)
