4Ls retrospective: Liked, Learned, Lacked, Longed for

Four columns that look back at a sprint, a project or a training course and forward at what the team wishes it had.

How to run it

  • Works well at the end of a project or a quarter, when there is more to look back on than one sprint.
  • The Learned column makes a good summary for people who were not in the room.
  • Votes go to Lacked and Longed for: that is where the next actions come from.

Everything can be changed after copying: wording, columns, timers and who sees what.
