About this template

A high‑energy, music‑themed retrospective that identifies new practices, stops disruptive actions, and reinforces what’s working.

When to use this template

Use when the team needs a fun, rhythm‑driven way to surface improvements and celebrate successes after a sprint.

How to facilitate

1

Gather the team, play a short K‑pop intro and explain the three columns: Ignite the Beat, Silence the Static, Keep the Rhythm

2

Give each participant a few minutes to write sticky notes for each column, focusing on concrete examples from the last sprint

3

Collect the notes, group similar ideas, and place them under the appropriate column on the shared board

4

Facilitate a quick discussion for each column, prioritizing the top three items the team will commit to act on

5

Close the session by voting on a fun chart‑topping action, assign owners, and play a celebratory track

Pro Tips

Encourage phrasing items as verbs to keep the action focus clear

Use a timer for each brainstorming round to maintain the rhythm and prevent drift

Create a visual beat indicator that moves as items are discussed to keep energy high

FAQ

What if the team runs out of ideas for a column?

Prompt with specific cues such as ‘What new habit could boost our velocity?’ or run a quick silent poll to surface hidden thoughts

How do we keep the fun theme from becoming a distraction?

Set clear time limits for each phase and remind participants that the music is a catalyst, not the focus, ensuring decisions stay outcome‑oriented

Can we adapt this for a larger group?

Split the larger team into smaller pods for brainstorming, then bring each pod’s top items to the main board for a combined discussion
