Plus / Delta
Two columns, fifteen minutes, done. The retro that fits inside a standup.
Two columns and a clock. What worked, what you'd change, and nothing else. It fits on the end of a standup without booking anything.
Reach for it when
- Get something useful out of a quarter of an hour
- Get a team into the habit before asking them for a longer session
- Keep a big group on track without handing them six categories to sort
Pick something else when
- The problem is tangled and two columns will flatten it
- People need to talk about how the sprint felt, not just what to change
- You're looking back at a serious incident or a big release
The board
What your team sees during Collect. Everyone writes on their own device, and nobody sees anyone else's Notes until the stage closes.
Plus
Anything worth keeping
Delta
Anything you'd do differently
How the session runs
The facilitator moves the room from one part to the next, so nobody has to remember what comes after what.
Collect Notes
Add your notes. Everyone writes at once.
Discuss
Read the deltas and decide what to change
Session Summary
Check what came out of the session and export it
Prompts that open it up
The facilitator can drop any of these into the room when it goes quiet.
