Start / Stop / Continue
Turns vague complaints into commitments people can actually keep.
Every Note is already phrased as a change in behaviour, so the session skips past diagnosis and lands on commitments. Good for a team that discusses well but rarely decides anything.
Reach for it when
- Get from 'this is annoying' to 'here's what we'll do differently'
- Decide out loud what the team will stop doing, which usually goes unsaid
- Finish on time with a short list of commitments rather than a long list of grumbles
Pick something else when
- You need to understand why something happened before deciding what to change
- The friction is between people, not in the process
- The problem doesn't fit in three buckets and forcing it there loses the point
