Reflect on past performance and identify opportunities for continuous improvement with the Easter Egg retrospective template.
Guidance for use:
Stage 1 - Icebreaker
Get the conversation flowing with a tasty icebreaker where participants share an image of their favourite easter treat or snack with the group!
Stage 2 - Easter Egg Retrospective
Teams will then make their way around the board adding their thoughts and feelings while covering each of the themes listed:
- What were our tastiest Easter eggs?
What were our positives?
What went great?
- Which Easter eggs did you receive?
How did we support each other?
Where did you receive a helping hand?
- Are there eggs we're still looking for?
Was anything missing?
Could anything be done better?
- Give some eggs away!
Give an egg to someone who deserves it!
Who stood out this sprint?
Stage 3 - Dot Vote
Team members use their egg tokens to vote for the most valuable tickets that we're created and will lead to the most constructive steps moving forward.
Stage 4 - Rate the Retro
Once all areas of the board have been covered invite the team to rate the retro by placing a dot/ shape/ post-it on the appropriate rating from 1 (Waste of time) to 5 (Productive and engaging session)

PI Planning Template
Works best for:
Agile Methodology, Strategic Planning, Software Development
PI planning stands for “program increment planning.” Part of a Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), PI Planning helps teams strategize toward a shared vision. In a typical PI planning session, teams get together to review a program backlog, align cross-functionally, and decide on the next steps. Many teams carry out a PI planning event every 8 to 12 weeks, but you can customize your planning schedule to fit your needs. Use PI planning to break down features, identify risks, find dependencies, and decide which stories you’re going to develop.
