The Mini-Putt Masters retrospective is a fun, themed format that helps your team reflect on successes, setbacks, and frustrations using the mini-golf metaphor. By framing feedback as highlights, lost balls, and obstacles, it encourages honest sharing and playful discussion.
When to use this template
Use this format for lightening the mood at the end of sprints or after a challenging project, especially when your team needs a morale boost and fresh insights for improvement.
How to facilitate
Welcome the team with the mini-golf theme and explain each column: skillful shots for wins, lost balls for disappointments, and obstacles for frustrations.
Give everyone a few minutes to add their reflections to each column—encourage honesty and creativity in line with the mini-putt theme.
Invite the team to read aloud or summarize entries, grouping similar items through discussion, and clarify any stories that need more context.
Facilitate a conversation about patterns, possible solutions for repeated obstacles, and new ideas to avoid 'losing balls' next round.
Work together to identify 2–3 concrete actions to smooth out future obstacles or amplify successful habits.
Wrap up by celebrating the wins and thanking the team—maybe close with a playful mini-putt challenge to keep things light.
Pro Tips
Leverage the playful theme to encourage vulnerability—remind the team that everyone faces obstacles and missed shots.
Use visual mini-golf or course images as a virtual background to make the experience more engaging and immersive.
Prompt quiet team members to share by asking about smaller wins or tiny frustrations—they don’t have to be monumental.
When identifying actions, keep them specific and achievable, just like sinking a short putt instead of aiming for a hole-in-one every time.
FAQ
How can I make team members comfortable with the themed format?
Introduce the metaphor and encourage playful language, but let people opt for straightforward sharing if they prefer. The theme is a conversation starter, not a requirement.
What if ‘obstacles’ outnumber the successes?
Acknowledge the challenges and use them as opportunities for action. Also ask the team to reflect on even small positive moments to balance the perspective.
How should I handle a lack of engagement?
Invite quieter participants to contribute by asking specific questions, and remind everyone that all experiences—from missed shots to major wins—are valuable for team growth.
