Moon Retrospective

Moon Retrospective

The moon has long been a source of inspiration and intrigue. Its beauty has captivated hearts and minds for centuries. The moon is also a powerful symbol of change and new beginnings. The lunar cycle is a reminder that everything is in a state of constant flux. Just as the moon waxes and wanes, so too do our energies and emotions.

The Moon retrospective format is a space for reflection and dialogue that honours this ever-changing nature of reality. It is a format that is designed to help us better understand our own emotions and experiences, as well as those of others.

Warm up

We suggest starting the Moon retrospective by taking a Mood Poll check-in (in the Facilitator's menu: Mood > Start Mood Poll), where each person has the opportunity to share how they are feeling in the moment.

This is followed by opening up the retro for all members to contribute their reflections on the board. As with our other retro formats, while people write up their notes we suggest playing music with your team using our IceBreaker feature, perhaps some Debussy: https://youtu.be/dFgQHOKSxM0.
