🌹🦁 Beauty and the Beast Ballroom Retro

Set the enchanted scene by welcoming the team to your virtual ballroom and briefly explain the theme and column purpose.

Invite each participant to take a few moments to add thoughts to all three columns: Plant New Roses for new ideas, Break the Spell for blockers or negative patterns, and Keep the Magic Alive for practices worth celebrating.

Allow everyone time to read and react to the posted notes, encouraging them to ask clarifying questions or add supporting comments.

Facilitate a group discussion, sorting notes into themes or priorities within each column. Encourage deeper exploration for any repeated blockers or surprising suggestions.

Ask the team to collaboratively select a manageable number of action items from the Plant New Roses and Break the Spell columns to address in the next sprint.

Wrap up by revisiting the Keep the Magic Alive column, expressing gratitude for existing strengths, and inviting everyone to share a final positive takeaway from the retrospective.
