100% agree! I absolutely love retros, too! It’s surprising how many teams within larger organizations either aren’t familiar with retrospectives or don’t prioritize them. I’ve had the privilege of advocating for and introducing retros across my organization, and the impact has been transformative—not just in terms of team velocity but also in fostering a healthier, more open culture.

Retros are invaluable because they create a structured space where teams can reflect, celebrate failures as learning opportunities, amplify every voice, and take intentional steps toward improvement. Without a dedicated avenue to discuss what’s working and what’s not, teams risk stagnating and missing opportunities to grow and adapt.

It’s not just about identifying problems but also about building trust and accountability, which ultimately strengthens the team as a whole.

Thanks for sharing, Ivan!
