📌 What is this template about?

This is a festive, Home Alone-themed retrospective designed to help teams reflect on a completed project. Using the classic Start / Stop / Continue format - and a sprinkle of holiday mischief - the retro encourages meaningful insights, team discussion, and actionable takeaways. It’s remote-friendly and built for collaboration in Miro.

🎯 What does this template help you achieve?

This retrospective helps teams:

  • Reflect on what worked well, what didn’t, and what to improve

  • Capture learnings from the full project cycle (not just a sprint)

  • Turn insights into clear next steps with the Kevin’s Game Plan action section

  • Encourage honest and thoughtful discussion in a fun, low-pressure way

  • Add a bit of holiday joy to your team rituals 🎁

👥 Who would benefit most from this template?

  • Agile teams closing out a project

  • Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches running remote retros

  • Teams looking to wrap up the year with a bit of fun

  • Any group that enjoys movie-themed sessions or creative reflection formats

🛠️ How to use this template

  1. 🎄 Start with the Icebreaker“You have the house to yourself this Christmas... What are you watching, eating, and doing?” Drop a sticky and get into the holiday mood.

  2. 🧤 Reflect using Start / Stop / Continue

    • Start: New traps to try next time

    • Stop: What didn’t serve us well this time

    • Continue: What worked like Kevin’s pizza plan Add stickies and discuss as a group or async.

  3. 🧰 Define Actions in “Kevin’s Game Plan” Turn insights into actions with owners and due dates. Don’t let lessons slip away like the Wet Bandits.
